It's right there, picking at the back of your mind. That feeling. Is it impending doom? A warning of something to come? Did you forget to turn off the stove? One thing is for certain - Something's Not Right.
Thus titled, Trevor Mcpherson's ebook collection of flash fiction plays on this feeling of dread, of some little detail that's just a little...off. At turns humorous and creepy, these stories all follow a common thread - something is definitely not right.
Trevor is a regular name in the online flash fiction scene. His talent for creating the extraordinary from the everyday has become his signature. A quiet town, a vivid dream, a field of corn - all ordinary, even mundane. Yet under Trevor's pen each of these will leave you feeling ever so slightly disturbed. Through the clever playfulness of Neither Teeter, Nor Totter, the subtle darkness of Last Harvest, and the eerie quiet of my personal favourite, Unwelcome, the reader is drawn into bizarre impossibilities that have somehow become possible.
Every one of these short pieces will give you cause for pause and leave you wondering if such things really could happen.
Something's Not Right is available in most formats (ebook readers, PC, online viewing) through Smashwords.

Thanks for reading, and thanks for sharing with your readers. I may have to amend my bio to 'Author of creepy fiction.' I'm totally OK with that. Hell, I may even print up some business cards.
ReplyDeleteOh, I definitely wouldn't limit your bio to author of creepy fiction. You would be shortchanging yourself in the humour department.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your collection very much and it is only my pleasure to spread the word.
It sounds like one of those you don't want to read alone, at night, wind blowing the trees, alone, the swing creaking on the back porch, alone...

ReplyDeleteHi Trev,
ReplyDeleteThis looks very interesting. I thought you were just fine, but now I wonder. Interesting video.
Congrats and Good Luck
very very creepy vid. Loved it. I tried to check out the book via the link but the connection was super slow...
ReplyDeleteYou're right, Michael. Trev's work does indeed speak for itself.
ReplyDeleteAnthony, I noticed the slow connection last night as well. It seems to be fine this morning. I'm hoping it means a lot of traffic checking out the ebook. :)
