Enter The Vortex Vol. 1 is coming July 2nd, 2015!

Prepare to enter the surreal! Today, I'm proud to announce the first installment of my new series. Enter The Vortex Vol. 1: Surreal Tales of Horror and Fantasy will be available on Amazon.com starting July 2nd, 2015. Like my previous work, Enter The Vortex is an anthology series. Unlike most of my previous work, Enter The Vortex blends elements of horror, science-fiction, and fantasy to create a surreal and terrifying experience

Enter The Vortex Vol. 1 is the introductory chapter for this new series — it's the first installment, after all. The stories include The Vortex, Nightmare on All Fours, Five-Finger Discount, The Puppeteer, and Remedy For The Not So Common Nightmare. These stories are surreal and unsettling — expect the unexpected. If you're a fan of shows like The Twilight Zone, you'll probably recognize some of my inspirations. (It's one of my favorite shows.) With that said, I don't want to spoil more, so I'll keep the details at a minimum.

As previously stated, Enter The Vortex Vol. 1: Surreal Tales of Horror and Fantasy releases exclusively on Amazon.com on July 2nd, 2015! You can purchase the book at the very special and affordable introductory price of $0.99 — that's a dollar for more than an hour of surreal entertainment! As usual, thank you for all of the support! Your constant readership is... spectacular! I sincerely hope you enjoy this new series.

Until our next venture into the surreal,

Writing Updates for June 2015!

First and foremost, Restless Nightmares Vol. 3: A Collection of Petrifying Short Stories successfully launched last week. If you haven't read it yet, you can purchase or borrow it by clicking here. For those who have already read it or intend to, thank you for the support. It's invaluable to me. I hope you're enjoying the stories. There's much more to come.

For starters, the next book will be the introduction to a new series. Although it will primarily focus on horror, the new series will also blend elements of fantasy and science-fiction. This series is strongly inspired by The Twilight Zone — one of my personal favorite shows. It will be a short story anthology filled with surreal stories. Although I can't say for certain at this moment, I'm aiming for most of the stories to feature unsettling and memorable twists. I want you to be surprised when you reach the climax — that's the goal.

The first book in this new series is completed. Well, it's currently in the proofreading process, but there won't be any other edits. Therefore, it is practically completed. It will feature five uniquely distinct stories. If you're a fan of The Twilight Zone, you'll probably recognize some of my inspirations — at least for one of the stories. Otherwise, I tried to keep the stories as unique as possible. I want the inspiration to be noticeable, but I also want to differentiate myself. After all, I don't want to rip-off my favorite series, I just want to pay homage. (I don't want to get sued, either.)

Anyway, although the cover and the book are completed, I'm not quite prepared to announce the title of this new series. I'd prefer to keep that secret until closer to launch. What's the launch date? Well, I'm currently aiming for July 2, 2015. Of course, plans can change. Then again, like I said, the book is practically completed. Anyhow, thanks for reading my books and showing interests in the future installments. I'll have more updates soon!

Until our next venture into the surreal,

Restless Nightmares Vol. 3 is available now!

If you didn't read the title, Restless Nightmares Vol. 3: A Collection of Petrifying Short Stories is available today! With your purchase, you get ten stories of demons, ghosts, mutants creatures, true-to-life horrors, and much more — a balanced blend of traditional and experimental horror. You can purchase it for $2.99 or borrow it using Amazon's Kindle Unlimited and Kindle Lending Library programs. Regardless, thank you for the support! This book, like my others, was fueled by my passion for horror and storytelling. Without you, I wouldn't be able to keep writing (at least as frequently as I do now.) So, once again, thank you!

Thank you,
Jon Athan
