Takeover: A Writer's Nightmare by A.C. Elliott
This short ebook is a romp through the messed-up brain of a creative writer that takes you on a bumpy joy ride with a twisted ending.
Review by: Seven Rivers Publishing on Nov. 27, 2011 :
Highly entertaining. Suspenseful, and laugh-out-loud funny. I was completely engrossed, wondering how the characters would manage to extricate themselves. Very imaginative -- two thumbs up for this well-crafted short story.

Best description of a writer wrapped into their own story. I loved the way Mr. Elliott weaved the characters into the story. The reader is never sure what will happen next. The plot twisted and turned, and provided an ending that was a twist,I never expected and at the same time provided a 'WOW 'factor ending. Thank you for a great read and I will not forget the lesson.

What a fun, funny, exciting, mysterious, adventure with surprising twists and turns on every page. Very humorous elements about how a writer actually thinks and plans his story, and also laugh-out-loud humor that will keep you wanting to read more. Very well written! Great read!
