William Malmborg Email & Phone Number

Published author of 15 short stories that have seen print world wide in magazines like Black Petals, Ethereal Gazette,Sinister Tales, Surreal; and book collections like Love and Sacrifice and Tabloid Purposes. Tangent Online said: “Johnny” by William Malmborg follows. Malmborg accomplishes what (authors names omitted) cannot. He sets up a familiar premise—the monster in the dungeon—to which he then sacrifices a character. In the end, though, we find the true horror not in the monster itself, but in the monster’s keepers’ reactions. Combining customary tropes with understatement and tongue-in-cheek humor, Malmborg tidily epitomizes Surreal’s goal of “quiet horror.”

Nice little job where I guarded a car in a small parking lot three days a week for fourteen hours a day. Gave me a lot of time to read and write while working, but was only a temp thing due to the company moving to Mexico. I ended up turning down the next assignment so I could go back to college.
