Horror Novelist and Film Producer Lia Scott Price has launched a series of free short stories and film shorts online. The short stories, called Lia Scott Price's The Dark Fiction Chronicles(TM), and their companion film shorts (released by DarkAngel Distributors(TM)), Lia Scott Price's Dark Fiction(TM), focus on the fictional diary of a female serial killer. "I write about what goes on in the mind of my character," Price says. Price even plays the female serial killer character in one of her film shorts.
The diary spells out in detail the motivations behind the serial killer's actions, revealing an abusive childhood and a deadly desire for revenge against the character's abusers. "Female serial killers fascinate me. You don't see that many of them in popular fiction. If you do see them, they are most likely portrayed as Black Widows with motivations limited to money. Poison or guns are the weapon of choice." However, Price's female serial killers employ more gruesome methods involving sharp objects. The diary is written at random, "Based on whatever thoughts the character has at the moment, in jagged but almost poetic format, in no particular order, about what the character is thinking or doing at that particular moment."
Price had suffered through an abusive childhood and, "This is my way of venting creatively, through fiction." However, Price stresses that, because of the dark nature of her stories, "Remember that this is all just fiction."
