Planting the Seeds of the Garden of Fiends | Guest Post

Hi, guys! To those of you I promised an update, we were able to demolish our old house last week. Things are starting to settle down, and I will be back this Saturday with a much better update.

As for today, I'm very excited to welcome Mark Matthews to Book Den! Mark is the editor and a contributing author of the addiction themed anthology Garden of Fiends: Tales of Addiction Horror.


Planting the Seeds of the Garden of Fiends

By Mark Matthews, editor and contributing author

From an early age, books shaped who I was. Writers were heroes to emulate. I wanted to be Thoreau, I wanted to be Mark Twain. I wanted to be Jack Kerouac.

There was something inside me that only stories could reach, a music only literature could play.

A similar reaction occurred when I had my first drink. The warm confidence, the blissful contentment. A union with God. All my curses lifted, all my deficits erased. It was love at first sip. Other drugs soon followed. I said “no” to nothing, “yes” to everything.

Pretty soon, I needed it to function. I started drinking alone. Getting shakes. Sweats. I went on drug binges and mixed drinking with cocaine, acid, or crystal meth every chance I could. I needed substances to feel normal, otherwise, I had perpetual flu-like symptoms and was intensely angry and bitter at the world. I didn’t care if I died and was quite certain that, due to drugging and drinking, I would die before I was 30 years old.

I nearly proved myself right. By 23 years old, I had alcoholic hepatitis of the liver, a swollen pancreas, my stomach was bleeding and I was shitting blood (sorry, I know that’s gross to read). More than once I went to detox to sober up after the pain got too much, but then I would drink soon as they released me. When money got tight and I needed $1.89 for a half pint of vodka, I visited car washes since that was the best place to gather 10 cent cans. Crazy thing was, the more disgusting I became, the more I needed to delude myself about who I really was. In my twisted mind, I was some misunderstood genius who society hadn’t found a place for, and therefore drinking was my only crutch to live with lesser mortals. Truth was, I was a pathetic lump of flesh.

A turning point came when, rather than just detox, I finally succumbed and went to residential treatment for 3 weeks. I didn’t want to go, but I had no other options. My body could not take any more liquor in it. My spirit was drenched with despair. I remember sitting in the treatment center, unable to stop the tears, and looking out the window with plans to leave, but I had no place to go. Instead, I stayed put, endured the pain of living, and found some humility and some courage. Each day sober felt like a miracle. I learned so much about why I was doing what I was doing, how to stop it, and most importantly, decided my life was worth saving.

No way in hell did I ever think I would go back to college to help other addicts, but that’s what I did. I got a masters in counseling, became a certified addictions counselor, and worked in many different treatment centers. My curse had changed to my calling.

And I returned to my desire to write.

Once I got sober, I started writing again. Writing out the darkness I had experienced was incredibly therapeutic, for if you want to tell the truth, best to do so by making up a story. I wrote one novel, Stray, which was based on a treatment center where I worked that shared a parking lot with an animal shelter. Next I wrote MILK-BLOOD, which tackled poverty, urban despair, and heroin addiction with a supernatural slant. Many readers were shocked by the darkness in the book, but the crazy thing is, it was all true (even if it didn’t happen) and much of the darkness in the book was actually understated. After writing the sequel, All Smoke Rises, I decided to reach out to other authors of dark fiction to see how they would tackle the subject of addiction.

The blog post for ‘addiction horror’ received 10,000 hits. I received hundreds of submissions and had to boil these down to eight pieces, largely of long fiction and novellas. I can’t promise you’ll like this collection, but I can promise it is different. In scope, in length of stories, in content. I’m incredibly proud of what’s inside, since addiction and horror seem a perfect fit. In order to tackle the modern day epidemic of addiction, it takes works of horror to fully explore the devastation.

Addicts, in a certain sense, are not that different than vampires: they live within society but hide their true nature while they feed off the living, siphoning their money, their sanity, always safest in the shadows. They feel cursed with their affliction but unable to stop the compulsion to suck the blood out of others.

And the family of an addict suffers as if something monstrous has taken over their loved one. I can’t help but think of the movie The Exorcist, perhaps the most terrifying horror movie ever made, as an analogy of a family dealing with addiction.

In The Exorcist, a desperate mother seeks out every kind of professional help after her daughter starts acting strangely. Nobody has answers. Things get worse, the young girl’s behavior gets more bizarre. Her very skin seems to be changing. The last resort is to seek help from something spiritual. A war begins to save a life. This true horror story happens every day, probably on your street. Parents losing their child to an addiction that has possessed their spirit. Thankfully, there are parents who are having their child saved through recovery. I know it works. I’ve seen the horror and the damage done, and I’ve seen many come out the other side and survive. Not without their share of scars.

This is the story of some of them. Check out Garden of Fiends: Tales of Addiction Horror



The intoxication from a pint of vodka, the electric buzz from snorting cocaine, the warm embrace from shooting heroin--drinking and drugging provide the height of human experience. It's the promise of heaven on earth, but the hell that follows is a constant hunger, a cold emptiness. The craving to get high is an intense yearning not unlike that of any other blood-thirsty monster.

The best way to tell the truths of addiction is through a story, and dark truths such as these need a piece of horror to do them justice.

The stories inside feature the insidious nature of addiction told with compassion yet searing honesty. Drug overdoses are now the leading cause of accidental deaths, and some of the most incredible names in horror fiction have tackled this modern day epidemic.

  3. Thanks for the post Jennifer! as for the dog shot... yeah, my kids make fun since i have more Dog and I selfies than kids and I (but, they also tend to shun daddy/daughter pictures, while the pooch loves them). One thing worth mentioning: many of the titles inside are basically novellas and longer than your typical short story. It was what I was shooting for: a way to spend more time in the fictional world. Thanks folks!

  8. In the introductory chapter, you will learn about the role affiliate marketing has in online marketing. Nevertheless, telemedicine and online pharmacies businesses in India must comply with existing techno legal laws of India. But this is not happening as on date and many e-commerce portals have been facing heat of law enforcement agencies of India. For instance, Maharashtra's FDA has already ordered filing of FIRs against Snapdeal, its CEO Kunal Bahl, directors and distributors for online sale of prescription drugs. Similarly the Indian government has just clarified about the Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in e-commerce sector of India so that foreign exchange related violations can be better tackled. The Delhi High Court has already ordered the government to investigate 21 e-commerce websites for possible violations of foreign direct investment (FDI) laws. But as on date the techno legal compliances for e-commerce industry in India are not complied with by a dominant majority of e-commerce businesses.

    Ecommerce has allowed firms to establish a market presence, or to enhance an existing market position, by providing a cheaper and more efficient distribution chain for their products or services. One example of a firm that has successfully used ecommerce is Target. This mass retailer not only has physical stores, but also has an online store where the customer can buy everything from clothes to coffee makers to action figures. Amazon, by contrast, is a primarily an ecommerce-based business that built up its operations around online purchases and shipments to consumers. Individual sellers can also engage in ecommerce, establishing shops on their own websites or through marketplaces such as eBay or Etsy. Such marketplaces, which gather multitudes of sellers, serve as platforms for these exchanges. The purchases are typically fulfilled by the private sellers, though some online marketplaces take on such responsibilities as well. Ecommerce transactions are typically be done through a computer, a tablet, or a smartphone.http://www.reviewengin.com/profit-engine-review/

    Consumer to consumer e-commerce has many benefits. The primary benefit to consumers is reduction in cost. Buying ad space on other e-commerce sites is expensive. Sellers can post their items for free or with minimal charge depending on the C2C website. C2C websites form a perfect platform for buyers and sellers who wish to buy and sell related products. The ability to find related products leads to an increase in the visitor to customer conversion ratio. Business owners can cheaply maintain C2C websites and increase profits without the additional costs of distribution locations. A good example of a C2C e-commerce website is Esty, a site that allows consumers to buy and sell handmade or vintage items and supplies including art, photography, clothing, jewelry, food, bath and beauty products, quilts, knick-knacks, and toys.

    Internet has brought a lot of changes in the digital world and we all know that it is quite possible to earn through the internet. And if done right you can also make a living out of it. One of the easiest way to earn through the internet is the online business. The process can be very easy if you know all the aspects of the online business. Otherwise it is quite hard to make respectful money from the internet business. In order to know all the aspects of the online business there is need to get a proper guidance. The best guidance that you can have is from the online business tycoons but it is not possible for everyone to enjoy this type of guidance. The best alternative to this problem is the ecommerce programs that are designed by these tycoons.

    In the standard posting globe, it's traditional to advertise a published book at the very least 3 months in advance of the magazine. This offers journalism time to review bound galleys and work your publicity into their own manufacturing routines. Currently, for standard authors that have full teams and also lots of money and also connections and also the equipment for posting, that's penalty. They can basically ensure that a book will certainly come out exactly the means they state it will, exactly when they way it will. But when you're on your personal, it's a various story. Anything could happen along the road. You can experience hold-ups with the printer. You might experience personal issues. You might find yourself delayed by artwork that didn't come out the means you wanted … Any kind of variety of points can go wrong when you're on your own.

  24. Therefore entrepreneurship is a basic discipline to learn for the student of business. While building relationships with people is always important, products that are complicated need a more technically oriented salesperson. You must be careful stroking a porcupine and you must also be careful answering customer questions. Funding is available to selected entrepreneurs who have received Pre-Incubation training as well as entrepreneurs with a vetted business plan who seek seed capital but do not wish to attend training.

    It is therefore the stage of ideation the BSC Academy supports, exposing the entrepreneurs to new ways to create companies and jobs. At Grazitti, our sales optimization experts help you develop a strategy to sell swiftly by automating your sales processes, optimizing your Sales Cloud, and implementing solutions like CPQ. While the first two pieces of sales advice from George Vitko at Reply sound pretty intuitive, figuring out how to provide value first-in the way your prospects want to receive it-is a unique challenge for those less experienced in inside sales.

    Only then will you have the time you need to use the best sales strategies and close more sales. This is why so many people are afraid to even say they are salespeople - they think that title is icky. A clearly defined buyer persona is crucial to an effective sales process. So the best way to define selling is to focus on the sales skills that are necessary to make that transaction happen. And these are the most successful and highest-paid people in every field. The most important of today's sales skills is simply understanding the buyer.https://www.reviewengin.com/secrets-of-closing-the-sale-masterclass-review/

  25. Whether you want to make extra money for Christmas , save for a holiday, pay down debt or even start a new work-from-home career, I hope one of these options will help you make real money online. If you are 21 years of age and have a four-door car, you're good to go to start earning money through the apps. Delivering pizza might be the first delivery side hustle that comes to mind, but, you can also get paid to deliver prescription medication for pharmacies, and some online retailers like Amazon and Boxed are now offering same-day delivery in select cities and are in need of delivery drivers. If you're bilingual and you have experience with certain types of software or technology products and a landline, these jobs can pay $10-$20 per hour—a fun way to earn a little extra income.

    In this post I am going to show you the easiest ways to start making money online today without spending a penny. You don't need any minimum in your account to cash out your earnings, and your funds should show up quickly in your PayPal account. This only works if you do NOT carry a balance on your credit cards, but if you pay them off every month (like you should) you can be earning a good amount cash-back each month. Using these sites you can rent out a private room, shared room or even your whole house for a night or month or whatever period of time you like. You can go through Amazon Kindle Publishing —they'll charge you a commission each time you get a sale, but their reach is huge, so you're more likely to sell more copies.

  26. Collaborative Environment: A collaborative environment can be set up between the organization, the technology service provider, and the digital agencies to optimize effort, resource sharing, reusability and communications. 36 Additionally, organizations are inviting their customers to help them better understand how to service them. This source of data is called User Generated Content. Much of this is acquired via company websites where the organization invites people to share ideas that are then evaluated by other users of the site. The most popular ideas are evaluated and implemented in some form. Using this method of acquiring data and developing new products can foster the organizations relationship with their customer as well as spawn ideas that would otherwise be overlooked. UGC is low-cost advertising as it is directly from the consumers and can save advertising costs for the organisation.

  27. You can able to earn around Rs.25,000 to Rs.50,000 if you work for 3 - 4 hrs every day on your computer based on my suggested ideas on this blog. These websites won't make you big bucks by themselves very fast, but you can optimize your earning potential by signing up for a few of the most appealing websites or apps. Even if you have no prior experience with internet marketing (or any kind of marketing for that matter), you will do just fine if you can watch the videos, take notes, and take action. When this article was first published, there were several websites which paid writers for submitting their poems.

    So, it's 100% reasonable that they ask for that much, and making a full-time income off the Internet is REAL, it is happening. Craigslist can be a great place to look for free deals where people don't have the means of hauling their old appliances away themselves. When you work with a company, oftentimes they will ask for your PayPal email and they'll send money there. As an irrational twenty-something at the time, I turned to online poker as a way to make money at home - specifically, Texas Hold'em. They partner with stores all over the country to offer products and brands at discounted prices which they pay you back in cash.

    Sites like Just Answer will pay you to answer questions either on the phone or online. You can always sell these items for some extra cash. You'll earn cash from paid surveys, completing offers, referring friends, and more. After you've started making money online with our free offers, you can always move on to trial offers and increase your earnings. You have to be careful how much you pay for a book, and then keep careful track of the expenses involved in selling it. For instance, when you sell on a website, they'll take a commission from the sale. Draw pet portraits in your spare time for some nice extra income.https://www.reviewengin.com/parallel-profits-review/

    Any longer than that and search engines will truncate the title in SERPs, which looks bad to searchers. By keeping these factors in mind, search marketers can create content that’s more likely to be found and ranked by search engines. To do that, they use bots—known as spiders or crawlers—to scan the web for hosted domains.
    Big image files are one of the most common factors that cause slow page loading. The Accelerated Mobile Pages technology allows faster content distribution on mobile devices. In practice, it means the content is served in a simpler, stripped-down version of your page on smartphones.
    Sometimes users can take advantage of this by adding links to their own site in your comment sections or message boards. Or sometimes you might mention a site in a negative way and don't want to confer any of your reputation upon it. For example, imagine that you're writing a blog post on the topic of comment spamming and you want to call out a site that recently comment spammed your blog. You want to warn others of the site, so you include the link to it in your content; however, you certainly don't want to give the site some of your reputation from your link. Think about the words that a user might search for to find a piece of your content. Users who know a lot about the topic might use different keywords in their search queries than someone who is new to the topic.

  40. If this AI's goals do not fully reflect humanity's, it might need to harm humanity to acquire more resources or prevent itself from being shut down, ultimately to better achieve its goal. However, the symbolic approach failed on many tasks that humans solve easily, such as learning, recognizing an object or commonsense reasoning. Deep learning often uses convolutional neural networks for many or all of its layers. In a convolutional layer, each neuron receives input from only a restricted area of the previous layer called the neuron's receptive field.
    AI provides virtual shopping capabilities that offer personalized recommendations and discuss purchase options with the consumer. Stock management and site layout technologies will also be improved with AI. Generalization involves applying past experience to analogous new situations.
    For example, automated spam filtering falls into the most basic class of AI, while the far-off potential for machines that can perceive people’s thoughts and emotions is part of an entirely different AI subset. The modern field of artificial intelligence is widely cited as starting this year during a summer conference at Dartmouth College. AI in personal finance applications, such as Intuit Mint or TurboTax, is disrupting financial institutions. Applications such as these collect personal data and provide financial advice. Other programs, such as IBM Watson, have been applied to the process of buying a home. Today, artificial intelligence software performs much of the trading on Wall Street. https://www.reviewengin.com/gpt5
