Flash Fiction: Half-Minute Horrors



"Half-Minute Horrors" is a collection of short, scary stories by some of today's most popular authors.  Be thrilled by Margaret Atwood, Kenneth Oppel, Neil Gaiman, Holly Black, James Patterson and more.

Although the book is marketed for children, be warned that I would not recommend it for younger readers. Click here for some excerpts. 

Writer's Challenge:  If you are an aspiring children's writer, I challenge you to write a horror story for children in no more than 500 words.  Post your story here, if you dare.
