Doorways Unforeseen by Mark Fuller Dillon
Doorways lead to nightmares in prose and verse. Fear a bone-white church in a dead town of the captured and collected. Fight to escape from a barren farm where floating figures mob and kill. Steal into a cedar forest where a creature from the sky reaches out to shatter souls.
“DOORWAYS UNFORESEEN opens the door for the reader, and entices the reader in, with the collection of horror and paranormal stories…. I am a big fan of Mark Fuller Dillon and read whatever this author writes. Each story or poem is unique, and paints a picture of a story, no matter the format. A picture is worth a thousand words, but each word is worth so much more. One of my favorites that I kept coming back to is ‘A Flimsy Vinyl Door.’ Something about it, just made me read it repeatedly. And when I finished the book, I went back to that one.”

“It’s been my experience that the writers who write for themselves are the ones who ought to be read most by us. Mark Fuller Dillon is no exception. Mark wrote DOORWAYS UNFORESEEN because it was in him to write. He wrote it the way he did, in iambic pentameter, because that is exactly what he wanted to do. It sounds simple, but it isn’t. It’s actually difficult and quite gutsy. Of course, as is Mark’s habit, he wrote each word, each poetic phrase with the careful precision of a master craftsman. Like an Oulipian working within the confines of constraint he has managed to tell us truly terrifying tales. ‘They Collect,’ and ‘A Flimsy Vinyl Door’ in particular left me (and leave me still) both genuinely unsettled as a reader, and envious as a writer for whom poetry has remained an ever elusive talent. Rest assured that poetry has not eluded Mark Fuller Dillon.”
