• 27 tales of the macabre and fantastic by Maine author Mark LaFlammefantastic.

  A mind reader sucks thoughts from both the living and the dead. A doctor discovers that the answers to all great questions might await in the grave. A professor suggests that we all may be nothing more than someone else’s work of fiction, and then sees horrifying evidence of his theory.

  In “Box of Lies,” LaFlamme presents a bleak future, where men and women are forced to walk for their daily bread, old people play games with ghastly prizes and the end of the world doesn’t guarantee a way out.

  A freak storm leaves half the population speaking gibberish, heaven may not be a permanent state and the tiniest decisions you make could influence the future in giant ways.

Mark LaFlamme edited the summary of Betty Dravis Thursday, April 24, 2008.

• Betty is a fantastic mix of Shirley Jackson, Edna Buchanan and Janis Joplin. Don't ask me how I came up with that unlikely comparison, I just feel it and I haven't been drinking much tonight.
  Betty is dynamic and beautifully spastic. We first met through Amazon and through a mutal appreciation for one another's work. I keep a copy of 1106 Grand on my nightstand since I read it two years ago and I'm always looking for more Dravis shorts. Short stories, that is.
  As talented as she is as a writer, Betty also knows her way around the social networks. I'm just catching up here in Shelfari. If you're new to her as an author, get copies of her novels and go prowling around for her Amazon shorts. Ask her about the Clint Eastwood incident and insist on the truth. I know there's more to that story. Maybe you can get it out of her.
  Rock on, Betty.
