It's up to you how much you give, and there's no regular commitment.

Just click the link in the show description to Terrify. Good evening, children of the night. Come on in, you well-read rabble. I've just wrapped up,

finally, Gary Witta's abomination. I think I told you three weeks ago that I got about

halfway through the not-to-that-long read, but work, you know. I enjoyed it, despite Witta doing a very good job of squaring the setting up with actual

historic England.

There were a few moments that read like a fantasy book, but maybe that's unavoidable

when you're writing about swords and dark sorceries.

For those of you who have a bit more free time than your humble host or simply a faster reader,

I'd encourage you to put it on the weekend reads list.

The other item we must talk about is the Parsack Award.

We won it, and by we, I specifically mean Justin Cothorn as author and Ron Newton as narrator

for Tales to Terrify.

I've linked in the show notes to episode 172, which is the episode that clinched it for us.

Thank you to both Justin Cothorn and Ron Newton for the terrifically terrifying story and narration.

Our first story comes from Emerley L. Husbands.

Her short stories have previously appeared in Shock Totem,

the Alchemy Press Book of Pulp Heroes on the Fear and Trembling website,

the Underground Voices website, and in The Cynic Online.

Her first novel, Thee Ad City, was released in October of 2011, and her poetry has appeared

in the Eonia Review, Muses Literary Journal, Other Poetry, and In the Tapestry of Bronze's Oads to Olympians
