Meet the Author – Free Book Friday

Visit us on Friday, October 3rd, 2025 at Studio Moonfall from 4pm to 7pm to meet Poetry & Horror Author, R.E. Bunch.

Hang out at the shop and take a peek inside their book, Red Horn:

“From the flames, I rise. The flesh rejuvenated from the charred, brittle bones of a weaker creature. I am alive.”

“Hands like claws and mouths like jagged caverns, howling for their next meal. It cannot be stopped until it is suppressed into a place of abundance.”

From the award-winning author of The By-Blow Promise Land, comes a new terrifying tale that is generations in the making.

Red Horn, a small rural town in northern Wisconsin, is sacred. A tight-knit community built on centuries of tradition and rituals that will bring about an age of peace. If Victor Ours, the heir apparent, has his way-the madness stops with him. The dark truths of the Ours’ family come to light. The angel they pray to is preying on them, and no one can stop it. Victor must make his decision: go into the unknown alone or stay to keep the peace everyone else wants.

See you from 4pm to 7pm on Friday, October 3rd, 2025 at Studio Moonfall, 5031 7th Avenue with R.E. Bunch!

Visit us on Friday, September 26, 2025 at Studio Moonfall from 4pm to 7pm to meet Poetry & Fiction Author, Kaitlyn Bolyard.

Hang out at the shop and take a peek inside their book, Mystical Music:
When Marek Dabrowski, a disillusioned pianist, stumbles into Madame Rosivda’s divination shop, he isn’t looking to have his fortune told, just an escape from the rain. Still, he takes her up on a free tarot reading. Out of curiosity, he returns for another reading and then another. Before long, he starts to see a direct correlation between the cards and his life. Judgment is a street-corner trumpet player named Abaddon. Death is a waitress from a local jazz club named Nyx. At the same club, he hears and immediately falls for Olive, a singer with secrets of her own. Soon Marek starts to hear the music in a new and exciting way, with just a hint of magick to guide him.

Meet the Author – Free Book Friday

This Friday from 4pm to 7pm, come by to meet our guest author, Christopher Micklos, and check out Tick Town!

Tomahawk Hollow has a huge problem. Slaughtered livestock. Disappearing townsfolk. And something in the woods hungry for blood. When a young reporter and her boss investigate, they discover a band of giant mutant ticks have made the rural Wisconsin tourist town their feeding ground.

Now, with the annual Harvest Moon Jubilee about to begin, Emmaline and Jackson must race to find the queen tick and her nest before a massive clutch of monster eggs hatch… and thousands more terrifying ticks are unleashed into the world!

Bursting with cinematic action, horror, fun, and suspense, TICK TOWN is an old-school, pulse-pounding pulp horror adventure. If you like classic creature feature horror fiction like JAWS and NIGHT OF THE CRABS or b-movie monster mayhem like THEM! and STARSHIP TROOPERS, you’ll love TICK TOWN!

Meet the Author – Free Book Friday

This Friday from 4pm to 7pm, come by to meet our guest author, Richard Bell with his book, Life Seemed Good, but…

This book is a collection of very short stories with unpredictable endings. It is dedicated to all those who supported someone suffering with cancer or any serious illness with the premise that laughter is good medicine.

Many of the stories come from Bell’s magazine column entitled Modern Fables previously published in Wassup Local Magazine (Lake County IL). He began writing as therapy in 2004 when he was laid off from his job shortly after his wife got leukemia.

Although the category is fantasy humor, Life Seemed Good, But…. contains parodies, elements of the surreal, as well as anti-humor and portrays diverse attitudes and takes on life from a somewhat dark but intelligent and laughable perspective as animals, food and other inanimate objects take on human qualities.

These multi-layered stories offer a glimpse into a life of struggling to cope yet provide a ray of hope in the simple act of continuing on, accepting the good, bad, and frustrating as a part of what we all have to endure and overcome.

Contains a wealth of hidden trivia and a portion of the proceeds is donated to cancer and Alzheimer’s research. The author describes himself as “just an ordinary guy and nobody special.”

This Friday from 4pm to 7pm, come by to meet our guest author, Amy McNulty with her newest book, The Baronet Who Thwarted Me…

I am my family’s sacrifice. I am Bedlam Academy’s pawn. I am the heroine in a romance that will save my world.

And I cannot stand the man I have to marry.

~~~

Georgiana Radcliff should never have survived the Sacrament ceremony that keeps her world in balance, and she certainly shouldn’t have retained her memories of her other life when thrust through the portal door. Now in another world, she must follow the rules of courtship in this exacting society to get the notoriously rakish son of a viscount to agree to marry her or she fails the Academy’s purpose—and endangers the lives of everyone back home.

If only the dashing, reserved baronet who crosses her path would stop diverting her. If only she didn’t find herself falling in love with a nobler gentleman she can never have.

Originally a serialized story, The Baronet Who Thwarted Me (Bedlam Academy Book 1) is a historical portal fantasy and genre-bending romance. Part high-stakes dystopian fantasy, part Regency England-esque courtship and decorum, this story will appeal to fans of historical romance and academy fiction alike looking for a dash of added enchantment.
