P.S. Power works in fiction, mainly focusing on Fantasy, Science Fiction and Horror genres, with brief forays into other things just to keep life interesting. He averages 1 to 2 books monthly and has several series going. He lives in an isolated cabin in the middle of nowhere, as a recluse, yet still manages to find time to talk to people online, in a positive and delightful manner. Not one of those creepy hermit types though, you understand. It's more of an isolated farm style thing. Or ranch really. He's also interested in three dimensional photography, and long moonlit walks on the beach, sometimes with vampires. When he can find time he also does writing and voice work for scripted online programs. Anyway, feel free to drop him a line. Or visit his forum: http://pspowerbooks.com/phpBBF/index.php
In chatting with Dale over the past few weeks, it was decided that he was interested in blogging to you, his readers. The blog he had within the main site was not going to be a viable solution and there were thoughts of just creating a Forum where only he could post and everyone else could reply. This MOD is a nice meeting of the two for what will hopefully be a highly successful blog!
Hoping this first (and only) post by me will kick off a nice method of interaction with Dale's readers!

p.s. - Also going to try and get the feed that comes with this to feed into Amazon and Goodreads. Good luck to one and all!! ]]>
I nearly didn't read after the first story in this book. I was furious and disappointed. I checked my Amazon Kindle history and I'd read 113 books by this guy. I have been a Patreon follower of his for a fairly long time. He has depression. But it doesn't show up in most of his books. It jumps up and smacks you in the face in this book. From this book I got that he is nuts in other ways. I've had depression for many years. I've fallen on my head a few too many times. I'm willing to give advice to people. But I don't advise the hopeless things in this book.
I also got the sense that his STEM education and knowledge is very limited and mostly wrong. No math or basic physics or chemistry has influenced any of his ideas. He seems to have learned all of what he knows from people who have read summary articles on topics and further dumbed down the content to make it acceptable and easily digested.
Read the new editions of his older work. Good writing, less insane. I've reread some and been glad I spent the time.
Coming back to the words of PS Power and encountering their book of short stories is simply... Wonderful. With a few insights by the author after every story, this is a fantastic collection that should inspire you to read the rest of their works if you haven't already.
I do NOT recommend reading "A Modern Horror Story" before bed; the apology from the author in the comments for the trauma DID NOTHING for the nightmares.
