Oenophobia: Fear of wines. Can you imagine having that one? I mean, could you even go out to eat (most restaurants serve wine)? Or go to a party? That would be a horrible fear. Great list, as always!

Another great post. I wrote a horror story that was published last month that could have a person develop ombrophobia. I took something that was normally pleasant, the scent of rain, and had it signify that the monster in the story was close by.

That sounds intriguing! When can I read this story?

It’s in the Dec. 2017 issue of Disturbed Digest. It’s called Alger’s Dimension. (It’s the one where my name is on the cover). I’ll have to put the story on my website one day so people who visit can read it, but there’s a period after they print it where I can’t do anything with it .
