Painted Black

Long past midnight, a mysterious man drags a black bag through the forest...nothing creepy about that, right?

Join me in our next story in the Dark Softly Tales Summer Bites series, Painted Black.

This story was originally published in a magazine called Unenthralled.

Welcome to the Dark Softly Summer Bites series. These stories are bite sizes, shorter than usual—about 5-10 minutes long. I hope you dig the Summer Bites opening/closing! The regular program will resume in September.

Opening & Closing music: Mav Skye
