Synopsis:

Sylvie, Cara, and April are growing up in a blue collar family in a quiet neighborhood. An American family living the American Dream. But things aren't always as they seem. Horror can happen to anyone at anytime. All it takes is a spark to ignite the bomb that splatters blood across living room walls.

 

Deadsville


Click on cover for more info or to order!

A one-stoplight town in the middle of nowhere, on the way to nowhere. A town ruled by quiet, country boredom, nestled between rolling hills and dense forests. Bordered by vast stretches of farmland. A quaint community of friendly faces, charming landscapes, picket fences. An idyllic rural existence. Maybe it is. But the locals have another name for their town: Deadsville.

And not for the reason you think. You see, this town holds many secrets. Nothing is as it seems. Old houses serve as something more than homes for the living. Killers walk amongst the townsfolk. Monsters are real. You’ve found Evil’s hometown. So be prepared to stay. You’re going to be a permanent resident. Because even if you get out, there’s no escape.

1 Town. 2 Authors. 13 Tales of Horror.

Deadsville is a collection of ALL NEW horror stories from authors T.D. Trask and Dale Elster, set in the fictional upstate town of Rock Creek, NY. The book in your hands is your personal invitation to join them as they reveal the darkness lurking there, hidden within the people who walk its streets. Haunting the places daylight never finds.
Waiting for your arrival.

HHAC Day 26: Lacey Lane

Lacey Lane was born in the UK and as a child loved writing stories. At the age of 31 she decided to rekindle her passion for writing. Her debut ebook The Revenge of the Pumpkins was first published in October 2014 followed by The Ultimate Guide to Frugal Living in April 2015. "I love to write. I currently have three ebooks published. The Revenge of the Pumpkins and The Ultimate Guide to Frugal Living and my new book The Little Book of Horrors. The Little Book of Horrors will also soon be out as my first paperback."

Besides writing she also likes


1.) When did you first get serious about writing?

A.) Just over a year ago. I love horror and released my first ebook on Halloween. It's a free short called The Revenge of the Pumpkins.

2.) What is the hardest part for you about writing?

A.) My grammar sucks, so I am constantly learning and trying to improve. I also find it hard to find the time to sit down and write. I have been known to write on my mobile phone when I am on the go because it's sometimes the only chance I have to write.

3.) How did you feel upon publication of your first completed project?

A.) Absolutely fantastic!

4.) What is more important to you, story, or character? Why?

A.) That's a hard one. I think it depends on the individual story. To be honest, I'm a "pantser" so I just write what flows out of me.

5.) What is a typical day like in your world?

A.) Get up, eat, work, eat, sleep. In between I try to write and spend time with my family. My work schedule can be crazy, so I can go for long periods of time without writing.
