Great quote from Stephen King

This is from The Shining:

“Remember, my talented friend, there are Michelangelos begging everywhere in the streets of Rome.”

My way of saying this has always been:  When you finally condescend to sell your soul, don’t be surprised if there are no takers.

Scary Easter Bunny Horror Story by David Barker

My Easter Horror short story, Don’t Go Down The Bunny Trail, is a 99 cent Kindle ebook.  I would post a link to its Amazon page, but WordPress doesn’t like that sort of thing, so I’ll just say it’s not hard to find.

And this is the last time I’ll mention it until next March or so.  Promise.

Free Horror & UFO ebooks today

Today only, I’m offering two of my short pieces as free Kindle ebooks.  You can get these by searching Amazon Books for Author: “David Barker” and Subject: “UFO”.

Don’t Go Down the Bunny Trail – An Easter Horror Story

Little Emily has been waiting patiently for weeks for Easter to arrive. Now there’s just a few hours left, it’s the afternoon before Easter, and she’s really excited, but her daddy’s late coming home from the mill, the sun is setting, and she’s afraid of being home alone when the woods get dark. A scary short story about something strange that’s coming down the bunny trail towards Emily’s house, and she’s not sure if it’s really the Easter Bunny, or if it’s that creepy rabbit from her dad’s horror DVD, or something else the townsfolk whisper about that came to Earth when a fireball fell from the sky one night and landed in the lake at the end of the Bunny Trail.

Scenarios of Alien Visitation

This speculative essay, first published in 1985, provides a wide range of possible explanations for the UFO phenomenon and the reported presence of aliens on Earth.

The essay is in the form of brief notes on many scenarios that, if found to be true, would answer the critical questions: Who are the UFO aliens? Where are they from? Why are they here? What do they want? This book poses many questions and suggests many possibilities, but it provides no definitive answers.

These scenarios are meant to stimulate further thinking about the UFO phenomenon. Some of the ideas presented are strange, even bizarre, and not likely to be found in a typical UFO book. This book will change your thinking about UFOs.

Evil Rabbits & Bad Bunnies Photos

I’ve been taking photos of evil bunnies and bad rabbits for the cover of an ebook short story I will publish soon on Kindle. The story is called Don’t Go Down The Bunny Trail: An Easter Horror Story. I thought people might enjoy seeing the better evil bunny shots. The best part is, after you take their picture, you can eat the model.
