Afterword
Well it looks like you have made it to the end of our little book. I hope you enjoyed it.
I had planned to put together a little Christmas collection this year and add a few bonus stories from other authors in the back. I started contacting some authors that I have spoken to in the past to see what the interest would be and the response was overwhelming. It meant the book was going to be bigger than I expected and a lot more work to put together. With the help of a wonderful editor I had been working with, some great stories from a group of my favourite authors and an excellent cover designer we managed to put this book together in 6 weeks. It was a lot of work and stress but I think the end result is worth it.
I only became a part of the writing world just over a year ago so this was a big step for me to take and I only hope everyone involved and everyone who reads it enjoys it as much as I have. I’d highly recommend checking out some work from any of the authors in the book that you hadn’t read before.
If you have a few minutes to spare, please consider leaving a review on Amazon or Goodreads as it truly helps authors more than you might realize.
From everyone involved at ‘Collected Christmas Horror Shorts’, we wish you a very Merry Christmas and hope the New Year ahead brings you an abundance of scary reads!
Thanks again for your support,
