The Ides

In this thriller, discover what happens when a man is caught in the middle of something that is more dark and sinister than his most frightening nightmares could ever be.. Beware the ides. Richard B. Foster's comments on his book: "I don't want to say too much because I don't want to give away the story, but I can tell you that it was inspired by respawning in video games. If you don't know what that is, it's when a character is recreated after they've died. And this can usually happen over and over." Richard B. Foster's reason for creating short stories: "A lot of people don't have time to read long stories, and honestly, I don't have the time to turn every idea of mine into a long story. There wouldn't be enough time in the world for doing that. The other reason is that sometimes it's just an impulsive move on my part. I get this idea that I really like, and I just want to bring it to life as soon as I can. There have been times that I've come up with an initial idea for a book and already had it for sale within a week. So, whenever an interesting story idea pops into my head, if my laptop is near me, which it almost always is, then I just start typing it up while immersing myself into the story. It's both fun and freeing, because I don't get tied down by any one story. This way, I can bring most of my ideas to life, and that's what I love to do."
