The lovely Dani Brown, author, editor, broadcaster, the self-proclaimed “Queen of Filth,” read my horror-erotic story “Betty and the Cambion,” on her Youtube site: (364) Betty & the Cambion by Ralph Greco, Jr. – YouTube for some end-of-summer, fun. She read Chris’s Faire L’Amour a week ago (listen here). Both of our stories appear in the anthology Unthinkable Tales 5 (find it here) that Dani edited.
It’s fun to hear something I wrote spoken aloud (beyond me just speaking aloud to myself all the time). I only ever get this pleasure if something of mine is made into an audiobook or when I watch and hear my lines spoken by actors when one of my one acts is produced.
(In that instance, I have learned all too often how, often, my words can ever convey the emotions, humor or dread an actor can be just a turn of their head or a pause or some inventive stage blocking).
Sweet Dani does a great job on my story; my prose can be ever so chunky. And surely, the story passes across some ‘unusual; moments. This is what Dani wrote about my story: Creature features are not just related to classic monsters like Dracula, THe Mummy, etc. Lurking on north eastern college campus there are rumored nasties afoot for even the most aware young college girls.” “As has been his manner of writing now most of his professional career, Ralph Greco, Jr. mixes the erotic with the downright horrible, in his new tall tale of unusual female empowerment, ‘Betty and The Cambion’.”
Well, I’m not sure about classic monsters or the downright horrible, although I love her take on what I wrote, and I guess, as she says, maybe there is a some female empowerment in there as well. The reader/listener would have to determine, if I hit the points.
Thank you Dani for reading my story. Go here to find out more about Dani and her story time: To submit a story: https://danibrownqueenoffilth.weebly…. All about Queenie: https://linktr.ee/DaniBrownQueenofFilth
