Thrillers, Killers -n- Chillers Closes its Doors

It is with a heavy heart that I inform you that the tremendous site, Thrillers, Killers -n- Chillers has closed up shop. This was a great site and hosted some terrific stories over the years. I had my first short story featured there and I still remember when Col Bury emailed me to let me know my story had been accepted. It was such a great feeling.  All is not lost however, as Davis Barber is taking the baton and hosting a new site called, Thrillls, Kills, -n- Chaos.

Big thanks to the kind and talented writers who put so much time and effort into making TKnC such a great site: Matt Hilton, Col Bury, Lee Hughes, and Lily Childs...WELL DONE!

You can check out the final TKnC post HERE and the new Thrills, Kills -n- Chaos site HERE

Liam Sweeney's @ TK-n-C

Thrillers, Killers -n- Chillers is on of my favorite sites. Editors COL BURY,  LILY CHILDS, and MATT HILTON do a tremendous job selecting the stories, which on any given day, could be in the crime, action, or horror genres. TK-n-C was the very first site where I had a short crime story published online. I will be forever thanksful for that!!!!!!!!!

Liam Sweeney's story "Dead Man's Switch" is center stage at TK-n-C HERE

"Night Games" published on Thrillers,Killer's-n-Chillers

I have always loved the short story, whether in print or film. Fitzgerald and de Maupassant are particular favorites and Twilight Zone, Night Gallery, Tales from the Crypt and Darkside as well. I have written many of them over the years and recently I have been revisting them. First impression was..these really suck in both style and format. A lot of them had decent ideas, but they needed work. I re-worked one that was orignally written for a Writers Digest "your story" challenge (750 word limit)The prompt was "you get a package in the mail and it only contains and eye patch" Well, I ditched they eye patch, but some of that story became a 650 word story "Night Games".

I took a chance and submitted it to the awesome website Thriller's, Killers-n-Chillers. A few weeks went by, and when I checked my e-mail on Saturday - a note from Matt Hilton (a many times published crime author)one of the editors at TK-n-C informed me that it was accepted. My kids must have thought I hot the Lotto, because I was dancing around the family room, I was so happy about the news. So, if you want to read the story and more importantly read some kick-ass Horror, Crime, and Thriller shorts
