The Articles of Dume
by H K Hillman
Price: $3.99 USD. 53590 words.
Published on June 1, 2012. Fiction.
There was once a hugely popular online magazine known as Alienskin. Within the HTML-pages of this publication, in every issue for seven of its years, you would find an article on writing horror stories.
Now, forty-five of those articles are reproduced in this single volume so those who enjoyed them can enjoy them again, and those who didn't can ignore them all at once.

H K Hillman
Biography
You wouldn't think it to look at him, but H.K. Hillman is a Doctor. Not 'the' Doctor, just 'a' Doctor, and not the medical kind. The scientific kind.
This is why writing takes so long. He is obliged to check facts even in fiction. It's in the scientist blood.
Speaking of blood, most of his tales are intended to keep you awake at night, when you're alone in the dark. If this happens to you, please spare a thought for the author who has to think these things up.
Alone. In the dark.
