            Seven Stories was only meant to be a temporary eBook, kind of a test case I put together the other year, but I didn't bother to take it down yet. At some point I need to because these stories will be in my new collections coming out later this year, which eventually will have DRM free eBook editions.

              I added Brian's free eBook to deals.woot.com for the last day of the sale (would've done it sooner if I had realized I could.... doh!). If you guys would be so kind as to give it a plus one that'd be great! Thanks.

                  Read the first story in the collection last night. Very good visuals, nice smooth dialogue, good story. Looking forward to the rest.
                  "What shall I say when my lord comes a calling? What shall I say when he knocks on my door? What shall I say when his feet enter softly? Leaving the marks of his grave on my floor."

                      I was really pleased with this collection of stories. I think my favorite was The Punishment Room, I found that had a nice little twist and a very interesting concept.

                      But, in A Dreamlike State, something about this part of it said something to me personally.

                      "Years would pass and he'd forget the Dark Country, but the nightmares wouldn't end and peaceful sleep would never return, not even after he fled the valley and the town where his personal demons roamed like Gods."

                      That is brilliant. Is it okay that I quoted that?

                        Not a bad story in the bunch. The stories are in no way related but the general theme's of the stories go well together. I moved right from Seven Stories to Kealan Patrick Burkes The Grief Frequency. This book is in line with the stories from Brian. Both really good reads.

                          A Dreamlike State is part of a much longer work, and that has always been one of my favorite lines. Thanks for posting it!

                            Any plans for the longer work to be available? I would like to know the rest of the story.

                              Maybe next year. Due to a lot of old projects finally getting done at the same time, I have seven books coming out this year so I think people are going to be pretty sick of me by December.

                              The story is part of a novel that got shot down by New York -- every editor my agent tried loved it, but they all wanted it to be something different than what it was, so they couldn't sell it to the higher ups. (Probably not enough -- or any -- glittery vampires.) Oh well. I still like the novel the way it is.

                              The short story "The Silent Attic" tells another part of the story, which is referenced in "A Dreamlike State."

                                To further expand on that answer, part of the reason I put those two short stories out there was to see if there was any interest from readers in this story. I've played around with other ideas for getting the book out there, like a free serial on my blog, but this book is not a gripping "thrill a minute" page turner... it's a slow build, heavy on character... So it might not be ideal for that sort of treatment.

                                (Most of the editors wanted "more excitement" in the first 100 pages, which I couldn't figure out how to provide... it's just not that kind of book. Either the reader will find the characters and their personal mysteries/demons engaging, or they won't...)
