BLURB: The Hypnotic: an anthology of paranormal horror

An anthology of paranormal horror…Evelyn Dawson is in therapy..She describes an experience of mental torture and brainwashing at the hands of a real life witch which prompts Dr. Heather Stone to do some investigating on her own. Believing that Evelyn is a victim of a cult, Dr. Stone’s investigation leads her to the outer realms of the paranormal where her reasoning and clinical training do her little good as she confronts the forces of darkness.

So.. in what sense is this an “anthology?”

My usage is that an anthology is a collection of poems or short stories by divers hands, while short stories or poems by a single author is a collection. The Look Inside! appears to be what I would call a novel with numbered chapter headings. I guess I’m a bit old-fashioned.

It seems there are plenty out there who use a nice literary-sounding word because it sounds cool, even though they don’t really know its precise meaning and haven’t bothered to look it up … AND they haven’t considered that there are others who DO know what it means …

“You keep using that word ‘anthology.’ I don’t think it means what you think it means.”

$9.95 for a 200-page Kindle book from an unknown author who spells stopped as stoppedt, doesn’t know how to adjust dialog tags when characters ask questions, and doesn’t know what ‘anthology’ means. Ummm… no.
