RE: The World's Shortest Horror Story Ever!
Not spamming, just wanted to say that the above is actually the shortest horror story ever.
You wrote a great short horror story, but there are many a lot shorter ;)
Haha I know bout that, just banking in on the "Daddy!" keyword as the shortest horror story :p lol..
Are you still on your evangelical trip in Mexico? Been a while since I read something bout that :)
Yes I'm still in Mexico and I'm still evangelizing. Check my blog though, been focused the past week or so on Havin and forgot to do any updates. Just posted an update on that project and a call for volunteers to test. I would love to have you onboard.
BTW You really did write a great story in general. It's one of few stories I've found that's worth a re-reading.
Thanks for the compliment!
Alright, I'll read it first thing in the morning.. LOOKS damn interesting... is it based of @andrarchy's nebulous idea of -the game- ? Fantastic!
Lol you upvoted and commented on the original post about this game. But no it has nothing to do with @andrarchy's game thing. He's a cool guy but that's just too far out there.
This is a personal shopping list manager that allows merchants to also see what you're in the market for. They invite you in with a free item on your list but you don't know what the item is until you scan it. In the meantime the merchant is obliged to accept SBD for your order and will be using the SBD to buy promoted ad space.
The whole thing is managed view a continually updating blog post and merchants can upvote customers, and customer can upvote merchants too.
Taken all together it's a shopping list app with both showrooming and geocaching facilities, that is all wrapped up in an old school 8 bit style RPG, but with MMORPG like capabilities. You can think of it like Pokemon Go for business.
There literally is nothing else like this in the world.
That's a tragedy, rather than a horror
I think it depends mostly on the reader's perspective.
It's not actually my story. It was written by Percy Shelly the husband of Mary Shelly the author of Frankenstein.
It's one of those stories that could pretty much take the title in any category. Even comedy.
For comedy, you have to assume that the well meaning seller was a nosy neighbor who bought them for someone they believed to be having a baby.
