A Short Walk Down A Dark Street: Issue 24

As posted by Peter DiChellis to our list….

This week’s blog takes a deep breath and tiptoes through the graveyard for short mystery and crime fiction: links to a full ‘trick or treat’ bag of free stories, reviews, and releases. Plus an essay on writing shorts.

Reviews include a Halloween anthology edited by Isaac Asimov with mystery stories by authors Anthony Boucher, Ray Bradbury, Edward D. Hoch, Ellery Queen, and others (published in 1983, a few very expensive copies are available on Amazon).

A short walk down a dark street (#24).

SMFS Member Publication News: "The Greatest Escape:Halloween Short Story" by Gail Farrelly

Houdini (he died on Halloween in 1926) has always fascinated me, so I thought it would be fun to write a short story about him.  What if he came back from the dead and ended up in modern-day NYC? Result? My publication at Kings River Life Magazine, "The Greatest Escape:  Halloween Short Story."
