Spilled Ink

By A.B. Morrison

SPILLED INK is the first published e-book by this young author and consists of two poems and five short stories that span multiple genres, showcasing the versatility of his writing.
“#4” is a tale of horror about a young woman who falls prey to a serial killer.
“The Sunbather” changes pace and provides a quick laugh about a fear of sharks.
Morrison delves into science fiction in, “Pandora’s Box,” and offers an explanation to the zombie apocalypse that, presently, seems an inevitable future for Earth.
Then goes back to the time of the Vikings in the fantasy story, “Crash.”
And the last narrative, a comedy titled, “Catalyst,” follows a young, accident-prone man who uses his cursed luck to save a woman’s life.
Finishing up the collection are two poems revolving around relationships titled, “Crushed” and “Single.”

Author’s Note

This collection is comprised of multiple works as an assignment in the course Publishing and Distribution at Full Sail University. Each piece is intended as a stand-alone, having no relation to the other stories found within this e-book, so there should be no attempt to find a single binding theme throughout because there isn’t one. Each piece has its own functioning parts and should be read as so.
