Newt's Nightmares
Greetings, my wicked darlings!
Black Friday—that magical time of year when the thin veneer of civilization peels back to reveal the true, consumerist hunger that lies beneath.
For just 99 cents, less than the cost of a decent cup of coffee which, let's be honest, is the only thing keeping most of us semi-functional, I present to you the eBook of "Tales of the Macabre, Vol. 1". A collection of stories that will chill you to your core.
In these pages, you'll find humor, love, passion, and terror, all interwoven like the threads of your tattered sanity. So, why not add a little more darkness to your life? It’s practically a steal—and let's face it, you were going to spend that dollar on something far less fulfilling, like a lottery ticket or a bag of sweets containing no recognisable ingredients.
Grab your digital copy this Black Friday and dive headfirst into the abyss of horror. After all, what better way to escape the dystopian hellscape of holiday shopping than with a good book? And at 99 cents, it’s cheaper than therapy—though I have absolutely zero credentials or medical training.
Right… I mentioned coffee and now I can’t get the thought of a cuppa black out of my head. I’m pretty sure that rocket fuel is the only thing that keeps my heart pumping.
Your ole’ pal, Newt.
