Back From Hiatusport

I've been working on an outside short story the past couple weeks, but that's done now. Expect another 250-word short story soon (perhaps even this evening). Meantime, a couple things that I found handy while writing the other story.

If you would like to find moon phase information, calendar-12.com is very handy. (I needed the darkest night of October, which corresponds to the new moon.)

If you're writing a scary story, these are some good words to use:
  • abnormal
  • anxious
  • clandestine
  • disgust
  • enthralled
  • fever
  • fiendish
  • ghastly
  • grotesque
  • haunt
  • hellish
  • indescribable
  • loathsome
  • monstrosity
  • mottled
  • pallid
  • perverse
  • repulsive
  • shiver
  • slimy
  • sinister
  • spectral
  • tension
  • unmentionable
  • unutterable
  • utterly
