We at ShiftersPress Collective are very excited about the upcoming release of our latest work: Read This Quickly (Or We All Die). We are so excited, in fact, that we couldn’t quite wait until the book is out and just had to share a bit of it with you. Enjoy the first chapter!
RTQ Chapter One:
From Steven:
My most
professional apologies. The story you were expecting to read cannot be found in
this book. Plot, characters, and syntax have all escaped via an
inter-dimensional portal and have now become hopelessly tangled with reality
(that, and we got blood all over the cover). Your only choice is to accept the
good with the bad, taking the heroes with the villains. If you choose to shut
this book and place it back on the shelf, simply pray that they do not find
you.
We never meant
to wreck the universe. Of course, nobody ever does. If you must blame someone,
the vast majority of the fault lies with fantasy novelist Reese Richardson. She
was the one, after all, who dreamed up the means for the creative world to
suddenly flood over into this perfectly proper existence we call the
twenty-first century. Thanks to her efforts, the villains are now running
about, wreaking havoc in the streets and causing nearly as much damage as the protagonists.
Once more it is
up to average people like you and me to don our grown up underwear and do what
needs to be done—the very difficult task that nobody seems to want to do: wade
laboriously through the uninspired writings of Reese Richardson and face down
her poorly developed characters. It’s that or flee to an exotic beach somewhere
and await the coming onslaught of terror with a drink in one hand and a sappy
romance novel in the other. Your choice really.
Best of luck,
The Editors
