📝 Description: Sick Scribblings: 100 Word Horror Stories From The Extreme To The Insane
A drabble is a work of fiction where the word count is exactly 100 words (not including the title). Presented in this collection are over 60 drabbles from the dark mind of Matt Shaw. Some are inspired by his previous titles and some entirely new and as fresh as rotting flesh can be. With illustrations from artist Janine Van Moosel, this collection has it all: from the romantic, to the psychological, to the very extreme... And, if that weren't enough - there are a number of published shorts too, along with the splatter-punk nominated story "Melvin".

Matt Shaw delivers a potent anthology of micro-fiction that thrives on its constraints. By limiting each story to exactly one hundred words, he forces a density of imagery that is both startling and effective. The blend of psychological unease with extreme splatter-punk elements provides a diverse range of terrors, ensuring the collection does not become monotonous despite its uniform structure. Janine Van Moosel’s illustrations complement the text, adding a layer of grotesque beauty that enhances the overall mood. This book suits readers who appreciate concise, punchy horror and those interested in the technical challenge of drabble writing. It is a strong entry for collectors of short-form dark fiction who value impact over length.
