Well i doubt i will return to making gfx since i am too involved with my literature. A few days ago my first book reached bookstores! I hope it does well
It is a collection of horror stories..
What do you mean by hyper-link, Curt?
It is in greek, yes. Only if it is a relative success will it be published in english.
I can post these summaries of the stories though:
The first story is called 'The contest', it is about a 10 year-old child that finds himself at night reading the magazine that has been published by the school. In it, in the final page, there is a strange drawing, of the shadow of someone standing infront of a closed door. Below the drawing is the explanation, according to which there is a contest going on, and one stranger will be sent behind the door of one of the pupils at night.
The second story is titled "The threat". It is again about a child in elementary school. It has become, after many years and a lot of pain, in a way popular, or at least that is his view. He is happy about this new state, but has the feeling that there is some unknown threat which could take it away from him. One night he is sitting with some other children outside, thinking again of this threat. The monotonous moan-like voice of an unseen child is heard behind him, but this does not alarm him, untill the other children stand up and walk away. Then he turns his head to see what is behind him, and immediately is cought by the moaning child, who is in reality a retarded person and keeps pressuring him in a tight hug, continuing to moan more and more wildly.
After he has been set free he returns, shaken, to his room, and there thinks of the possibility to cause the death of the retarded person.
The third story is named "Nightmare". It is about a university student who is troubled by intense, very vivid hallucinations of a white wolf. The wolf was originally seen at the edge of a forest just outside the university, but later on jumps inside his room from the open window. Then, just as the narrator is beginning to calm down a bit, he hears a knock on his door. It is a hated other occupant of the dorm. The wolf attacks him, and cuts his face into pieces, and the narrator cannot accept whether or not the hated roomate was too a hallucination, or something else is happening.
The fourth, larger, and final story, is the Notebook. It is about two friends who were planning to study abroad. A party is held in the house of one of them for Newyear's day. However an unexpected visitor arrives, one of the quests opens the door expecting to see someone he knows, but it is the father of the host. The host immediately gets up from his chair and goes into the deeper parts of the house, seemingly unable to even confront his father. The narrator, after a while, decides to go looking for him, but the only thing he sees is a notebook being thrown from the darkness of the bedroom of his friend. Inside there is nothing. In the notebook he reads a strange story about his friend being lost in a vast, unknown and unlit place, while trying to exit his room.
From time to time i go to the stores to see if any book has been sold. It is good that although i am a new author some books already have been sold, and this can only mean better chances of more being sold, assuming that the ones reading them will like the work
