    About this ebook

    A fear can manifest itself in many ways. From direct to superficial, or anywhere in between. But no matter the combination, fears will find a way to influence people’s actions. Influence them to avoid a fearful interaction at any cost. Even the simple cost of innocence. Three individuals are faced with this exact dilemma when a well-known bully is found dead in the high school. Each have their reason to try and cover up the situation or have a chance to expose the truth. Can they figure a way out of their guilty consciences or are they set to take on the repercussions of a deadly secret?

    Travis Blase

    I am a writer of horror and psychological thriller short stories, having done so for the last decade or so. From that passion for scary and unsettling tales came my drive to create Surefire Stories which is my motivation to create solid reading material for those interested in the same genre that I enjoy. I try to bring a new and creative style for readers who aren't looking for a two chapter description of a character, but instead want to have a story that is always sending them in different directions. My stories can be gruesome, but for me and other readers of horror it's a staple to the entertainment value I hope to bring. I am a very open person to feedback as I'm always looking for ways to improve my writing styles. While I have a lot of inspirations to my writing when it comes to other authors, I really enjoy the quick thrills of a short story. Many of my writings are inspired from shows like the Twilight Zone and the Outer Limits, but with a much less TV-friendly approach. The story that really jump started my interest in writing these types of literary works is one by Shirley Jackson titled "The Lottery". For those who haven't read it I suggest doing so if you are curious what my writing styles include.

      An adolescent shriek woke her. Cockerels, she thought, cockerels, with a wry twist to the word. She lay in the dark listening. There was no use in covering her head; the screaming still came through. The soloist was suddenly submerged in the chorus.
