I love scratching. There's a trigger I keep craving deep in my soul and I don't know what it is. I've tried different videos where people scratch trees, concrete, steel wool, bare mic, scratching post, carpet and they ALMOST meet the craving. The scratching is not "deep" enough but the closest I think is bare mic and rarely some wood scratching. Please give me ideas or you own triggers.
I liked Incidents Around the House because every chapter something bad or weird happened and it wasn't just for the sake of something happening. Most horror I read consists of mostly buildup, and it doesn't work for me anymore. I'm desensitized to horror so reading hundreds of pages to discover a simple plot twist or a character death or a typical monster is very frustrating. I really enjoyed the near end of Sharp Objects but the parts I enjoyed didn't last long enough before I got the ending I partly predicted
I'm seeking some abominations that combine the concept of horror with unintentional humor. I laugh at The Exorcist 2 and I thought that the "jumpscare" in Jason Takes Manhattan where he appears behind the people was funny. I'm not seeking things that are bad in the way that The Wicker Man is or the Poltergeist remake if that makes sense.
I'm about to be in THAT stage as I finish my first book. I'm not publishing for fun or for significant money, I'm publishing for entertainment and I hope to get an audience that takes me seriously, even if it's small. I am scared of self publishing or online publishing because as a reader and book club member myself, it appears anyone can publish anything and these online books either get lost in the void or aren't taken seriously by other readers I know. I don't know which publisher to even choose or how to choose one. Guides haven't eased my concerns so I would like personal experience.
I really love onions and they're very versatile so I will eat them everyday, but I cannot deal with the smell or the discharge. I shower everyday and I have tried using wipes and a few different soaps I've tried haven't helped. I know foods like yogurt can be good for pH balance and smells but I don't think it helped when I tried it.
