About the Book

Do You Want To Live Forever? Ever since Jacob Benjamin touched his dead Grandmother's cheek while she lay in her coffin, he has had a fascination with death. The mystery of the grave and what lies beyond it became a lifetime quest for the young man. His Master's Degree thesis project explores the decades abandoned Waxley Mortuary, sitting in ruins. His research partners join him on a journey through life and legacy - but Jacob discovers there is still activity inside the dilapidated walls of Waxley. From the appearance of an old photo the story begins; and as the mirror of one's life reveals actions and regrets, Jacob realizes that there is one figure standing between him and his legacy, salvation, and redemption: The Mortician. A.L. Mengel goes back to his storytelling roots with a novel about the pursuit of legacy amidst the solitude of darkness. Can one shed their transgressions to accept their shortcomings?
About the Author: In 2013, A.L. Mengel changed the face of Horror Fiction when his novel "Ashes" was published by Parchman's Press. To date, "Ashes" is his most widely read novel, available worldwide in all formats, including a deluxe hard-cover edition. In the subsequent years, Mengel has released several more novels on paperback and e-readers, as well as short stories. His writing has been exclusively published through Parchman's Press. "Ashes" gave birth to "The Tales of Tartarus" series, which includes "The Blood Decanter", which was under Jury consideration for a Bram Stoker Award in 2015. In the same year, he also became an Active Member of the Horror Writer's Association (HWA). A.L. Mengel is also the creator of #Writestorm, a writing methodology and time management system designed to help busy authors get their novels written. A book was released in 2015 under the same name, which was his #1 seller of that year. The #Writestorm methodology has been adopted by authors worldwide on several continents through several Facebook groups, one in particular, The #Awethors. Writers meet and hold timed "group writing sessions" and adhere to the rules outlined in Mengel's methodology presented in the #Writestorm book. In 2016, Mengel delved into Science Fiction with his novel "The Wandering Star", which holds position as his highest pre-ordered book to date. More recently, his epic novel "War Angel" released worldwide in Fall of 2016. In 2017, he released "The Europa Effect", a Sci-Fi sequel set almost entirely in deep space. Since the A.L. Mengel page was created, Mengel has had several hashtags attached to his page, the dominant one being #TheWritingStudio. He calls those who like the page "Beloved Friends" of The Writing Studio. His published books also feature a forward addressing the Beloved Friends directly. The motto of The Writing Studio is "Sharing music, writing, inspiration, art and trending topics." In addition to the creation of "The Writing Studio", A.L. Mengel also created another hashtag and a series of regular posts called #MusicfromTheWritingStudio, where he shares inspiring music paired with quotes, or sentiments, or what was playing at the time.
