As he turned the corner onto his street, he couldn't help but glance down the dimly lit alleyway adjacent to his building. What he saw there sent a chill through him. A group of individuals, clad in strange, tattered robes, huddled together in a makeshift circle, their chanting barely audible from where he stood. Bizarre symbols were drawn in chalk on the ground, and their movements were fluid and ritualistic. The air grew heavy with an otherworldly presence, and John had an overwhelming urge to look away and hurry home. He thought he had escaped their notice, but in truth, they had seen him.

New project - something different!

For those who follow me... I have a new project that is different from what I have done before in the past. Let's say it involves a modern setting in a paranormal sense. There may be some vampires, some romance... and a dog that knows Kung-Fu (maybe not that last part, but I'm still on the fence about it). Once it is published I will post the link to the Kindle Vella page here. It is episodic content that I am sure you will love. Hahahaha...
