What’s a quote that perfectly describes your outlook on life? | Horror Story Quote

I’m feeling a little overwhelmed lately by all the OPTIONS! and THINGS I MUST DO!*

So when I saw WP’s daily prompt—What’s a quote that perfectly describes your outlook on life?—this quote popped into mind:

[If a] decision [isn’t] an easy yes, then by default it should be an easy no. That’s just good life management.

Girl, Incorrupted

I guess this post was an easy yes.

*Says who?

Megan Bledsoe writes stories with a touch of fantasy across three distinct emotional tracks: dark, light, and gray. Her next release is The Epoch Rite of Passage, a dystopian satire trilogy for readers who wish 1984 could have ended another way.

The Girl, Incorrupted Paperback is LIVE!

If you prefer paperbacks to hardcovers and ebooks, then I have good news. The GIRL, INCORRUPTED paperback is available now!

Here’s the cover:

Here’s the back cover copy:


I would have done anything for Andy. But the night I vandalized the starlet’s poster, I began wondering how to make Andy do anything for me…

Daphne James’s boyfriend is supposed to propose tonight. Instead he tells her he’d marry a girl like the vaudeville starlet they see on a theater poster. Daphne’s never heard of the woman, so she checks out her show. 

But as soon as she enters the misty, peach-scented L’Aornum Theatre and glimpses the flawless Fausten Cotter, Daphne’s insecurities multiply—but so do the mysteries surrounding the starlet. Daphne’s warned to stay away, but she can’t. So when the starlet’s theater announces an amateur vaudeville competition, Daphne enters to impress her boyfriend—but also to discover the secret of the starlet’s appeal. 

Unfortunately, the starlet has more secrets than Daphne can fathom:
She’s an incorrupt corpse.
She takes her own interest in Daphne.
And Daphne won’t like what the starlet has planned.

CAUTION: Do not read this book if you’re not ready to fully give in to a monster type you’ve never seen before. Tropes will be subverted, corpses will rot, and hearts will be broken. It’s a love-horror story, after all. You have been warned. 😈


I hope you check out the book and enjoy!
