What Are AmberPax™ Collections?

Simply put, AmberPax™ Collections are groups of five stories centered around a specific theme. Each story within an AmberPax™ is released individually, on the same day as the others, and can be purchased separately, but these five stories can also be purchased as a single unit (the full AmberPax™) at a discount, currently 25%. Generally, an AmberPax™ is similar to an "anthology" of stories, but instead of the titles being released in only a single volume (file), they are also available individually. These AmberPax™ Collections are sold exclusively through our website and only in electronic format.

THIS BLOG is for news about the Pax Collections - follow it to keep up with releases, find early news of the upcoming collections, and share Pax fun and chat with the authors!

All Amber Paxes can be bought at Amber Quill HERE.

Do you believe that houses can be haunted? by D.J. Manly


When I wrote this story for the Gothic Pax, I wanted to pay tribute to a couple of themes within Gothic literature. I was thinking of the books Dracula and Jane Eyre and how when I was at University in Montreal, the huge, old sprawling mansions of Westmount made me recall those stories. 

I used an actual haunted house as the setting for this story, a story that is as tragic as it is beautiful. The story is told through the eyes of Jamie, who has just entered adulthood and is in the throws of discovering who he is and what he wants out of life. He is a lonely soul in his own way which leads him to the journey he takes in this house. 

This house in question is pictured below. Apparently it is lit up every night, all night long, and pictures taken of it have shown a mysterious figure standing at the window. Do you believe that houses can be haunted? If you don’t, you might change your mind after reading this story.
