I'm a writer AND a reader and boy do I have a story for you! Review for the short story, "Dark Thread, Loose Strands", by award-winning author, Art Taylor, is live at Killer Shorts.
#killershorts #shortstory
“Double Dutch Dare” was selected for the 2026 BEST AMERICAN MYSTERY AND SUSPENSE! To be a part of BAMS with writers I admire who have come before me - Tom Andes, Meagan Lucas, Art Taylor, S.A. Cosby, and Ashley-Ruth Bernier - is insane. Truly the craziest thing NOT on my bingo card this year.

Y'all, we are living in disordered times. Stay safe. On a lighter note...My little 1 page script is a Killer Shorts SEMIFINALS!! Granted, I don't believe it will make it to the Finals...I dream BIG not DELUSIONAL.
Short story, Rent Party, in the semis but the script is my ❤️. #killeralum #dreambig
Cover image: a taxi in the foreground with the door open an arm hanging out a bloody knife on the ground. A bridge is in the background, buildings on either side.
