Castles In The Air: Quinn Cullen's Scribble's

'The Dweller' is my contribution to this month’s Friday Frights. The theme: Demonic Toys. Previously published under my real name by Angelic Knight Press in the anthology Satan's Toybox: Demonic Dolls, this story is longer than the flash fiction normally posted but when I tried to split it into three parts I just couldn’t decide where each installment should end. So I’m posting the full length story. The Dweller by Quinn Cullen Dan and his best friend Buck, a German Sheppard, were frequent visitors at the local landfill, an awesome scavenger hunt territory. They were treading through heaps of rotting waste, narrowly avoiding stepping on the motionless crows and seagulls strewn about. Under normal circumstances, those obnoxious foragers pillaged the dump for something to eat. Tonight was different.

I Remember I remember your arms wound around me tight, and it hurts. I remember your body ever so close to mine, and ache with longing. I remember your scent, and sigh. I remember your eager kisses, and my lips begin to throb. I remember your caressing hands, and yearn for your touch. I remember the evidence of your desire pressed hard against me, and gasp. I remember your loving gaze,  and tears we ll in my eyes, for now repulsion is all I see staring back at me, I remember that you loved me once,  or so I thought. Then you stopped, and confusion clouds my mind. My heart is broken as  I remember, and I mourn. by Quinn Cullen

It's been a long time since my last post. Time is slipping by so fast it's hard to keep up. I promised a poker buddy, Giorgi, that I would post my story The Dweller here on my blog. It was originally published by Angelic Knight Press (under my real name-Yvonne I. Bishop), and is included in the anthology "Satan's Toy Box: Demonic Dolls. If you haven't read it yet there's an impressive line-up of author's sharing their scary tales of a little girl’s best friend, her precious little doll. But these dolls are nothing like the ones you might remember from your childhood, be it your doll or a siblings doll. Alongside all of the other excellent books published by Angelic Knight Press, Satan's Toy Box: Demonic Dolls is available on Smashwords and Amazon. Check it out, you won't be sorry-I promise you.  Following this post will be a post highlighting the brilliant author John Gilmore. Look for that some time tomorrow. So for now-without further ado, I ...

                                Thank you, Tim Marquitz for allowing me to probe into your personal and professional life. I totally enjoyed our time together. This interview took place back in March of this year. I apologize for the lengthy delay in getting our interview posted. You have been a gentleman Tim, thank you for your patience. J Quinn – Hi Tim, please tell us a little about yourself. Are you married? Do you have any children? Not only an author, you are an editor as well. Would you tell us about the different professions (skills) that you have? Whatever you’d like to share would be awesome. Tim – Hey, Quinn. Thanks for having me. Well, I’m pretty boring. I write horror and dark fantasy and am working my way toward doing it full time. I’ve a wonderful wife and daughter, both of whom ensure I get as little sleep and alone time as possible, which I’m sure was in the contract the...
