June 23: A. G. Carpenter

The bed shakes, rancid breath spilling from shadows beneath. The boy screams, trying to wake up, but he is not asleep.
A.G. Carpenter @Aggy_C writes speculative fiction of, and for, all sorts. She blogs at http://agcarpenter.blogspot.com

I love “rancid breath spilling from shadows.” Every child’s biggest nightmare encapsulated wonderfully here.

Creepy and awesome.

I love this. It’s definitely got a cool horror slant, but it could be about nightmares, aliens, demons or all three wrapped in one big terror. Fantastic!
