Ever get a song stuck in your head that just wouldn't go away? Did it make you feel you were close to losing your mind? What if that song were replaced by a word, a simple, lilting word repeated by an invisible child that seems to permeate from within and all around you?
Bad things might happen. Very, very bad things.
Brett Williams, author of "Family Business" says "Lintner does a fine job of getting his fiction stuck in your head."
As someone who regularly gets songs stuck in my head as a result of listening to them 20 times over in one sitting, along with mild tinnitus, I appreciated this.
There’s not much I can say without giving away everything, considering this is a mere 15 pages, but the length didn’t let it down.
Short, fast, and sharp, I wish there was more from Kevin out there.
This short story is a sad and powerful trip into insanity. Without giving away anything beyond the story description it is literally a journey down the road to a breakdown. It was well written and I enjoyed it. It is not for the faint of heart though.
This reads like something out of an adult Scary Stories to Tell After Dark.
The author gives you just enough to leave you satisfied without taking away your imaginations ability to twist and shape the story into a personal horrific nightmare.
This is a nice little dark story, I liked it, There was no "WOW" moment, but that is a big ask for only 15 pages, I'm interested to see what this author writes next
