I Want to Kill Again

Last year, in Unearthed, I killed three readers. This year, in Cursed, I want to kill again.

Would you like to see your name in print on the pages of Ashley Lister’s next book?

Are you ready to be killed off in style as one of Ashley Lister’s unfortunate victims?

Ashley Lister is giving one lucky reader the chance to be named in his upcoming novella, Cursed.

He’s writing it right now – and wants to kill off one reader in a gory and bloody murder.

If you want to pre-order a copy of Cursed, you can find it on Amazon here.

All you need to do, to be in with a chance, is contact Ashley (me@ashleylister.co.uk) and share (on any or all social media) the images and links he sends by return.

The winner, picked at random, will lend their name to one of Ashley’s new characters, who will be killed off in a gruesome and unpleasant fashion. The closing date is February 14th 2021 so, please get in touch as soon as possible.

We’ll announce the winner(s) on the publication day of Cursed (March 1st 2021). Good luck!
