She trembled, the blanket drawn to her mouth as stared into the corner. Then, the inky shadow expanded, moving toward her again.

A couple new ideas have infested my frontal lobe, priming the pump for some future stories.

Just for Giggles: Giggles the Birthday Clown is having a bad day. His wife left him for her orthodontist, taking his kids with her and cleaning out the house. He just got fired from his day job after 20 years. Now, after a major storm sacks the east coast, he seems to be getting sick… more sick than he’s ever been in his life. And he’s getting hungry. Giggle’s day is about to get much, much worse…

Mailbox Baseball: Five friends are spending their last summer together before college doing what they love: partying, drinking, having sex, smoking pot, and smashing the mailboxes around town. But then a party in the woods gives them a surprise… one they’ll likely never forget…

Have you ever wanted to see your name in print? Ever wanted to hear your name in an audio story? Have I got an offer for you! As I’ve mentioned, I’m working on a few stories for my new site, https://darkerrealitystudios.com/. One of the things I’d like to offer is the chance for my friends and fans to get their names in print by naming characters after them, a chance to get in on the ground floor of this new creative endeavor. For this, the character’s would NOT be you, but they could sport your moniker. Anyone who is interested, send me an email at scottepond AT yahoo DOT com. Keep in mind that many of the stories will be adult oriented and may contain sexual, violent, and supernatural situations. For these, the characters fall into three categories:

Major Character – These are the pivotal characters of the story. If they survive the darkness (or if they serve the darkness) there is a very good chance that they may come back for future stories.

Minor Character – These are the typical characters that the major characters interact with. Typically they will have dialogue and/or will be prominently mentioned in a portion of the story. In many cases, these characters become cannon fodder for the minions of darkness, early casualties in mankind’s fight against the inevitable.

Just a Mention – These are characters that are behind the scenes and are typically mentioned in a single or a couple sentences. These characters potentially have the best chance of being elevated to Minor or Major Character status, especially if they have a relationship with the more prominent characters, if they survive the darkness (or if they serve the darkness). Often times, these characters are also just victims of the encroaching darkness, falling beneath the heels of entropy with barely a wimper.

Right now, here’s a brief description of some of the small and large characters that I have in mind… if you think any of them should coincidentally sport your name, let me know:
