The Last Days of Rosalind Kershaw - The Sirens Call, Issue 31


Rosalind Kershaw's body is failing, but her mind is solid.

Or is it?

She has no family, no friends and lives alone. 

Or does she?

I am thrilled to be included in The Sirens Call's Fifth Annual Women in Horror Issue. Not only because I am in excellent company, but also because "The Last Days of Rosalind Kershaw" is a bit of a departure for me. It's not - gasp! - flash fiction. It's a short story, running about five published pages. 

The issue is FREE to download and if you'd like, you can meet Rosalind Kershaw on page 77. Don't wait too long, though. Her days are numbered.

  3. Oooh. Chilling and thrilling description. You know - I had written off reading horror several years ago until I started reading your work, Cherie Reich's Nightmare Collection, and some of Milo James Fowler's darker fiction.
    Your writing rocks, Madeline!
