Platform Launched For Authors To "Share The Dark Side"
A website which provides an opportunity for writers to gain worldwide recognition.
- (1888PressRelease) July 16, 2011 - New Delhi, India: People may claim to be non-believers of the strange activities reported of spirits but answer this, have you never questioned "Do they really exist"? Thousands of stories have been written and read on suspense, existence of supernatural creatures, spirits haunting after they were called back to Earth, serial killers hunting people down and stories told to little children around the campfire! No one knows the truth behind them but everyone still has a story to tell when the night creeps in. These stories have been written on the internet but how many come out and get published to be circulated around to be read under the bed sheet covers at night?
Short n Scary Stories, recently launched online forum, provides writers, globally, a platform to submit their scary short stories and a rare opportunity to have it published, if found worthy of recognition. It believes in not letting a story die among the innumerable stories available on the Internet but to bring it to front so as to be read in the form of a book. The trend of short stories renewed in the post-war era, a need to write short descriptions of several incidents, continued to make it to the 21st century and transformed in the realms of blog and e-zines. Why the specific genre of "scary" or horror has been taken up is because it slowly grew on people with the rise of Gothic in the Renaissance period. The belief that an age old tradition should be kept alive is what keeps them going.
