Currently halfway done with my second short story.
Ernest Hemingway said it best-
There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed.

I have very much done this in my second story. I have laughed and cried writing this beginning. I truly believe a good "scary" story should have most emotions in them; Thrilling, funny, scary, emotional, and a sense of intimacy.
Be ready for an emotional scary ride.
