The urban legend is coming. All will soon now and fear the Pumpkin Thief!
RELEASE DATE JANUARY 09TH 2012
I'm excited Noble Young Adult Publishers will be publishing my first YA novel. Release date JAN 09th, 2012.
RELEASE DATE JANUARY 09TH 2012
As the town folk sleep, something creeps into the neighborhood. Hidden in shadows, its presence is as old as time itself, its intent not born of goodness.
Nick, a young man who fancies himself a detective, wakes to find his carved out masterpiece missing. Now a mystery is afoot, and Nick has his first assignment, to find out who or what is snatching up the town’s pumpkins and why.
Unfortunately, as with all great detectives, obstacles stand in Nick’s way—the neighborhood bully and his cronies, and the strange old lady and her dog who share the run down house at the end of Nick’s block. As Nick investigates, an urban legend unravels…
The Pumpkin Thief of the Hallows.
Nick fears the legend as he embarks on the most dangerous adventure of his young life. Collecting clues, ever closer to the true nature of evil, he learns that curiosity comes with a high price.

The Plan by Charles Day
I'm excited to announce that my Mystery/Conspiracy novelette "The Plan," has been accepted for publication with Naked Snake Press. For only $2.99 it's now available at
http://www.amazon.com/-/e/B004H1ZIAU
Frankie is about to come into a large, large amount of money. He listened in on a secret, and now he’s devised a plan to retrieve these unmarked bills. He needs to get this cash before those he heard it from get to it first, and he’s going to bring a few of his friends in to help him collect it. They will be needed in order for his plan to work.
Nonetheless, his plan is not going to be easy, and he’s not even sure he trusts his buddies to keep things under the radar once they get a hold of this loot. Especially, Fat Lou!
As things progress, Frankie will soon find out he’s made a grave mistake and will have to pay the ultimate price.
The Plan is full of mystery, suspense and a conspiracy that should have never came to be.
Welcome to Frankie’s twisted and dark world.

My Newest Venture

TALES OF TERROR & MAYHEM FROM DEEP WITHIN THE BOX
FILLED WITH DARK STORIES FROM FRIENDS& FANS OF THE EVIL JESTER
INCLUDING “THE GIFT,” THE PREMIRE STORY OF THE ORIGIN OF CHARLIE IN THE BOX
EDITED BY JESSICA A. WEISS & CHARLES DAY
After hiding down in his box for the last few weeks, Charlie, The Evil Little Jester, is ready to unveil his latest and greatest writing endeavor. He's titled it “The Gift,” a true tale of the origin of the little guy and how he became so evil. Call it a memoir or an autobiography, but after I sat down and read it, I felt it was more of a twisted tale of evil revenge and pure carnage, sure to raise some hairs on the back of your neck.
Nonetheless, Charlie in the Box went a step further. He took his idea and knocked on the publishing doors of Wicked East Press without my knowledge, and broke bread at the table with their owner Jessica Weiss, discussing his devious plan. It wasn't until later the same night while I was relaxed watching TV, that the Evil Jester approached me, jumping on my lap to tell me what's coming down the pike.
So, as his owner, I'm proud to announce that Charlie in the Box is opening his first Anthology Book, inviting all his friends and fans to join him on his latest venture, the evil little ham. Submission calls will officially begin May 1st, 2011 and will remain open until the little guy's box is filled.
Charlie told me he's looking for your best, most frightening and horrifying dark tale of terror and mayhem, without spilling too much blood in the process. He prefers the psychological tale, the type that likes to get into your brain and twist your neurons until they shoot sparks in all directions, forcing our readers into a psychotic state of mind. We also want stories that will keep our reader's night lights on for weeks to come.
He's not looking for the occult, satanic stories, or demons gone amuck. This includes anything involved with sexual abuse, child abuse, sex with animals, animal abuse, or anything else not appropriate for a good old fashioned horror, thriller and suspense book. Don't make the little guy angry, he just had his elongated teeth sharpened, and his bite is much, much worse than his bark. I have some wounds to prove it.
Payment will be one copy of the book upon publication.
