Halloween Never Ends & Other Eccentric Stories of a Socially Twisted Transgender Woman.(Kobo/電子書)

In HALLOWEEN NEVER ENDS & OTHER ECCENTRIC STORIES of a SOCIALLY TWISTED TRANSGENDER WOMAN, Seraphina Evelyn Hicks delivers a sample of her unique perspective on life. The stories encompassing the themes derived from the deepest parts of her imagination are a testament to her virtue in character and plotting, asking many taboo questions about society. Her life experience growing up as a diverse and colorful individual lends to complex stories that will leave you with new questions to ponder. Her stories are a place to explore the dark crevices of your mind. Just a slice of her imagination is contained in the four stories that make up this small book.

"Halloween Never Ends," is a taste of poetic flash fiction inspired by the master himself, Edgar Allan Poe. The theme of the story suggests that we have lost our traditions in the fast-paced capitalistic society that we live in today. She uses symbolism and an artistic application of words to create a setting that is a memory of primitive times embedded in a modern story. A family that has lost track of their ancient responsibilities in the modern capitalistic world of Christmas in July and have neglected the orders of their ancestors. They will have to pay their restitution for their neglect.

"Avery's Virtue" is a coming-of-age story about a young lady in a very small Northwestern Town. She has spent her life as an outcast. She is considered the town floozy and must make some hard decisions on what direction her life will head. It's a typical small American town tail with the type-cast, after-high school characters that never grew up or understood their privilege. The theme of the story is about making that one big decision that changes your life.

"Time Froze the Day I Left," is a scene from a future war in America to combat a regime of fascist ideologies attempting to restructure the United States in favor of White Christian Nationalism. A snapshot of the soldier returning home for a short stay after the loss of a child to the horrors of war. The themes are rooted in the ideas of decency and body autonomy. The importance of knowing when it's time to fight for personal freedom.

"The Stingy Landlord" A 40,000-word novella is a modern retelling of the classic Irish wives' tale, Stingy Jack. This is the story of a man who receives a large inheritance from a great uncle, a venture capitalist who turns out to be the devil. Instead of helping people he spends the money on real estate investments and begins a widespread gentrification of the historical-low-income area of the city which also includes the gay district. Jack is a horrendous person who cheats and lies his way in life. After hearing about his despicable deeds and horrible treatment of the LGBTQ community, his great uncle, the Devil, returns to witness his atrocities. Jack manages to fool the devil into giving him three wishes, one of which is to never go to hell for his horrible behavior. But learns he should be careful what he wishes for.
