My Teaser is from Horns by Joe Hill

On Kindle at 43%

But then there was that secondary shadow image, dark and featureless, which kept twitching in and out of existence.  This second version of himself was without horns - an image not of who he was but of who he had been.  It was like watching his own soul trying to pry itself free from the demon to which it was anchored.


I look forward to reading your teaser. 

Thanks for visiting Tea Time with Marce

    Wow, that's really spooky, I love the language. It almost reminded me a little bit of Dorian Gray
