This week is NYMST’s 5th Anniversary. 5 years ago, on Halloween, was my first ever episode. Of course, I read “Tell-Tale Heart” and “The Raven” by Edgar Allen Poe. So for this episode, we’re doing something different. We’re breaking out of the public domain! I’ve got a new, current, author to share with you. Lee Allen, an author in Wales, writes short stories – spooky short stories. I asked if he’d let me read one for my podcast and he agreed. It’s called “The Deathly Shade of Pale.” I think you’ll enjoy it. You can find Lee Allen's linktr-ee here: LeeAllenAuthor. Enjoy! And Happy Halloween!
