Another Marnie Baranuik “Between The Files” short story is dropping just in time for Hallowe’en, my pretties. Go ahead and dirty your Kindle on Monday, October 21, 2013! It’s a fun little romp with some of your favourite characters, perfect for a one-evening read or a trip on the train. If you like epic fails and big ol’ dirt monsters (what kinda whackadoodle doesn’t?) then you’ve gotta get Dirt Nap! I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.

Jail probably would have been a better place to spend a Thursday afternoon, but when a preternatural expert is needed, there’s no one else who can fill Marnie Baranuik’s Keds. Beset by a rampaging stone monster and a furious quarry owner, trapped between a rock and a hard-ass, Marnie faces her biggest challenge yet, and discovers once and for all if size really does matter.

(Editor’s note: A.J. Aalto is hard at work on the third instalment to the Marnie Baranuik Files, if by “hard at work” you mean lurking in graveyards, eating all the Hallowe’en candy, and lookin’ for trouble.)
