Three of these tales are newly written first-person prose variants of three of my YouTube shorts (The Jarprechaun, Server Unknown, and Sleeperette). The other two are very recent ideas that are first seeing the light of day...
On Amazon now:
Knifepoint Horror, The Transcripts: Volume 8 (containing rink, sideswipe, endgame, chains, traces, Devils Everywhere You Turn, detour, sabbatical, summoners, steps, doggo, crannies, and majesty) in both paperback and e-book versions.
or download the free, ridiculously gigantic Knifepoint Horror collection as a PDF here or directly from this update's attachments. (One project this year may be making the text collection more manageable.)
This is the horrifying tale of a gigantic severed hand bent on vengeance, and on top of that, there's wolves and ghost armies and Michael Myerses and--aw hell, I cannot lie. Paintings by Nadia Strause is a G-rated short novel so far away from horror that it's a wonder my name stuck to the cover without sliding right off. Thanks to you Patreon supporters, I was able to carve out time to follow this idea and hopefully create something a little inspiring, with artist Rebecca Finelli providing the book with some lovely sketch work. An audiobook version will come later.
...And maybe I'll have a little fun in the coming year adding some files to a Patreon shop; the first one I've posted is a collection of all eight Unchallenging Campfire Tales as a single-file .mp3 download, which should be totally free to Patreon supporters--click here to check that and see if I set everything up right! Or download it straight from this update's attachments and get on with your day...

I really love the deadpan hilarity of the Campfire Tails. Although I did at first think SilentCon, DeadlyCon was for something worse. Though still not as bad as a Bronycon.
Michael Fallon
Okay, looked it up. HC is one thing but I’m not sure I could handle that CRAZY CAR!!
Lee Wilkins
Please, push publish, I've been good all year
Soren Narnia
I’d guess no, but the podcasting world remains a baffler to me :)
Elliot Lem
Anyone know if we can listen to Patreon extras on Spotify?
Jeffrey Young
My second favourite piece of German cinema behind "Das verrückteste Auto der Welt!"
Soren Narnia
I prefer the twelve-hour director’s cut, naturally.
Michael Fallon
Those kids will stop cheering when they realize that at the hour mark Human Centipede is just getting good!

Got Paintings and finished it last night! You got some real genre whiplash happening between that and the horror, but you excel at both. A lot of those deeper feelings carry over to your horror characters. Really gives them more depth than the typical scary stories.

Streaming's ok as long as they don't have commercials in the middle of sentences. I've seen YouTube music with commercials in the middle of a word in a song. The worst part is laughing at a serious song because the singer's mouth looks so ridiculous caught wide open in the middle of a vowel.

YouTube audiobooks not downloadable, sadly!
Jill E Merrill
Oh. I never thought of YouTube. Thanks! I hope the books are downloadable. I've been trying to find Server Unknown and keep getting random crap screaming at me - scarier than your stories!
Soren Narnia
Nope, as faithful a transcript as I could produce!
Soren Narnia
Once again, thank goodness for YouTube, such a trove for free audiobooks!
Jill E Merrill
Thanks for such a plethora of new listens. I've been stuck at home with bruised ribs that I got when my husband saved me from falling out a window while I was removing vines from our window screens. Sleeperette!!! Can't wait for your new novel to come out on audiobook. For those of you who like audiobooks: I ran out of Audible credits so I've been listening to public domain books. They're a mixed bag. Bram Stoker's Dracula and Mary Shelley's Frankenstein are great listens, but Wuthering Heights was more like Withering Heights.
Elliot Lem
Think we can get Kirk Kennemore to go partner with us?
Ryan Fahey
Great stuff to look forward to. Will volume 8 of the transcripts have any notable differences from the recordings?

Also…love the campfire tales in spite of the fact they keep lulling me to sleep. The first story of the sister cities I’ve heard 14 times!

Tomorrow I move from Ontario to Nova Scotia! Any way you can get ‘em on-line tonight, Soren?? It’s a helluva drive. Of course I jest, just a little wishful thinking. Very excited.
Soren Narnia
Oh, and also in ‘Devils Everywhere You Turn’…!
Soren Narnia
Oh yeah, that’s Mig Windows, heard recently in ‘doggo’ and ‘I Was Called Anwen’….
Emily T
Okay, I am perhaps overexcited about this quintet of stories. As someone who has logged a lot of time on Amtrak’s Northeastern Corridor line, I loved Sleeperette as a short. And Server Unknown scared.the.crap out of me. Whoever the actress was, she was fantastic.
Jean Nordland-Skomars
Always exciting and appreciated.
RetroBot
Ordered Paintings and eagerly awaiting its arrival!
Soren Narnia
Major spoilers abound if you go into those shorts before the Quintet arrives…!
Mike M.
Always wanted a better look into some of those shorts on YouTube. Grabbing a copy of “Paintings” too. Many thanks for the great entertainment!
Soren Narnia
Counting on you to support my ‘impound’-themed miniature golf course!
Elliot Lem
Just ordered Paintings by Nadia Strause. Will always support your career!
Lisa
You spoil us!!
Mechelle
I looked up your book and saw the Knifepoint Horror transcripts and other works on Amazon. That is so neat, and now my library will grow considerably!
Hilde Marciniak
I love campfire tales in August. My favorite!! Thank you
Alain Kapel
Hyped for the quintet of little horror tales, sometimes horror works best in small doses. :)
Bridgett Bauer
You just made my birthday month remarkable! Thank you Soren 😊
