I am excited to announce our very first story by a guest author, No Chapel Could Compare by Nicholas Leonard. A story of love found in the most unlikely of places and the most interesting of people. It's creepy, surprising, heartwarming and heartbreaking.

Edgar Allan Poe is known for his gothic poetry, and this is one of my favorites. Spirits of the Dead perfectly blends together the human mourning and mysterious nature of death, with contemplations that come from long nights he spent sitting alone, surely remembering those he had loved and lost. I often think of Poe and what writing meant to him. He struggled financially all his life, just to be able to write. This poem tells me why he wrote.

Today we enjoy one of the most famous ghost stories of the Victorian era, one of the most memorable of works from Gertrude Atherton. If you enjoy the macabre, drab nature of a silent walk on a lonely night or the terror of being swept away by the strong current of a river...beware The Striding Place. A terrific metaphor for the fear of the unknown and the impact of death upon those still living.

Edgar Allan Poe wrote this creepy poem as a young man serving in the military. With its intense atmosphere and vivid details of the macabre surroundings describing this ghost town, it's possible he could have been writing about his own horrific experiences during his service. Come along and take a journey through the city in the sea.

Katherine Mansfield wrote this beautiful love story after an encounter with a close personal friend. She was an astounding writer, experimenting with new perspectives on narrative structure and exploring character through the narrative voice. She was a short story writer, a poet, and a leader of the Modernist literary movement, and she was, quite unapologetically, herself.
