GHOSTWRITTEN to poison your brains...

I'm trying to poison as many minds as I can with this quartet of horror, so the price is currently just $1.99. There are many Easter eggs in this book that reference my other works. First person to identify the Easter egg that references my novel Snow (shoot me a DM), I'll ship you out a free signed book:

Happy reading!

Ronald Malfi answered LeighReads's question: Hi Ronald, huge fan of your writing! Interested to know if you have a specific favourite among your work? Or was there any particular book that was more enjoyable to write than others? The process is generally the same--meaning it's both tedious, panic-inducing, and terrible, but also sublime and one of the most enjoyable things I could do. My personal favorites are December Park, Come with Me, and Floating Staircase. Ask me on a d See Full Answer

Quotes by Ronald Malfi (?)

“I’m so sick of political correctness. I’m suffocated by it. We’re so goddamn politically correct that we lose our individualism, our definition as human beings. Don’t you agree?”
― Ronald Malfi, Snow

“It has been said that nature does not know extinction. In effect, it knows only change: nothing ever truly disappears, for there is always something—some part, some particle, some formidable semblance—left behind. You can boil water into vapor, but it hasn’t disappeared. Curiosity killed the cat, but condensation brought it back.”
― Ronald Malfi, Floating Staircase
