Read an Excerpt:
Night of the Living Stomach
The body was dead but the stomach was not. It lurched its way out of the incision and landed with a plop on the autopsy room floor. It inched along tasting cleaning fluid until it found the spotless break room. It climbed onto the pristine counter and enveloped the shiny coffee maker.
The stomach recoiled in disgust at the flavor of more cleaning products combined with bitter coffee grounds. It missed its host. Isaac Head never failed to feed it on command. In fact, he’d been about to bite into a juicy burger when he plowed into an oncoming semi.
About the Author:
C. L. Hart is the owner and sole employee of Ornery Owl Ventures, is an editor who writes or a writer who edits. She is described as The Mad Scribe of the Northeastern Colorado Plains, The Terrible Old Woman, and The Author That Should Not Be.
When not penning sanity-destroying works of dystopian fiction, Lovecraftian fantasy, or old-school horror with the occasional sweet romance thrown in to upset the cosmic apple cart, Ms. Hart enjoys creating baked goods she hopes will be considered palatable.
Ms. Hart shares a home in a remote rural town of 134 souls with her adult son and three cats. Her sense of fashion is best described as Early Twenty-First Century Unmade Bed. This disabled former nurse can usually be found arguing with herself about subplots or rehabilitating eldritch horrors.
Ms. Hart is a member of ACES Editing Society, The Denver Horror Collective, First Coast Romance Writers, The H. P. Lovecraft Society, Passionate Ink (writing as Lil DeVille), and Rocky Mountain Romance Writers.
