In a series of stories of all kinds, John Urbancik takes us on a wonderful journey. Dark, disturbing, uplifting, and very well done.”- Jonathan Mayberry, New York Times Bestelling author of V-Wars and Rage. “It’s as if Urbancik graciously cracked open his skull, handed over the scalpel and told us to have at ’er.”- Rick Hipson, Rue Morgue Magzine“Not only is John Urbancik giving sound advice about writing and inspiration, he’s adding so many personal anecdotes and stories about his own journey...and this is where this book shines.

InkStained: On Creativity, Writing, and Art Reviews

4.5
“Books about the craft of writing are everywhere. There are probably thousands of them, and some are more helpful than others. InkStained: On Creativity, Writing, and Art is the new book by dark fantasy and horror writer https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/626775.John_Urbancik . The title of the book comes from his self-created challenge to write a story every day for 365 days of the year, but this book is actually an updated transcript of a podcast the author did concurrently with his challenge. You can read R.J.'s full review at Horror DNA https://www.horrordna.com/books/inkstained-on-creativity-writing-and-art .”
