The White Ledger novella available free on Amazon.com
If psychological horror is your thing, then you might enjoy this folkloric horror novella. I wrote this a little while back and thought of expanding it into a full 85,000-word novel, but decided I would self-publish it and make it available for free through Amazon’s KDP publishing arm.
It was born of this idea I had one day:
What if there was a reason for Shirley Jackson’s “The Lottery?”
I first encountered Jackson’s short story in either 1969 or 1970. I saw a film adaptation of the story at Taper Avenue Elementary School in San Pedro, California. It was shown in the school auditorium. An educational endeavor produced by the publishers of the Encyclopedia Britannica. If you’ve never seen it, I found it on YouTube, and it is well worth the near-eighteen minutes.
Jackson’s story left us pondering a number of other things more important than the why of it all. Nevertheless, the question plagued me for a long time, and The White Ledger was my answer.
