This week, the illustrious folks over at Macabre Monday— Shaina Read, John Coon, and Jon T—issued a call for dark drabbles based on the following prompt:
Just as I am rewatching Dexter. 😈 Last night I finished The Butcher and the Wren, written by Alaina Urquart, one of the hosts of my favorite true crime pod, Morbid. I'm soaking in it! 🩸
I say we need a Spooky Season at least twice per year to nurture our inner dragons, especially with a lot of the excessive angst swirling around in the world. More, please. 🔪🔪
Thank you—for both the compliment and the prompt! Really appreciate the work you guys put in for the benefit of the horror/fiction community here on Substack.
Incredibly thrilled that you enjoyed the piece, Shaina :)
Disturbing in all the best ways! Besides, there is beauty in the order of routine…
Whoa!

Ooooooo! You are on fire! This is an incredible piece. Love the rhythm you created in those first lines. "Every. Single. Time."
