The wonderful SERIAL Magazine has released their special Valentine’s Day issue, and even in horror, there are love stories.
“An Invitation to Darkness” is a sweeping tale of a retired sea captain, the woman she loves, a manor by the sea, ghosts, graves, dark secrets, eldritch monstrosities–everything you could want on Valentine’s Day, wrapped in a classic-feeling Gothic horror for the modern day.
If you head on over to Asymmetry, they publish short fiction every Monday. Today they published “The Nowhere Song,” a flash fiction of mine about a chance encounter and why you should always be polite. You can read it here.
Today brings to the world my first published stories for 2019!
“Daisy” is the short story of a dog and the slight she cannot forgive. You can read it free at the Gallows Hill Magazine website.
Also for a quick read, check out “Sunday Afternoon for Benny Rose” at Dime Show Review, where they type ten-word stories on vintage typewriters and upload the results. Pretty snazzy!
And of course, Happy Women in Horror month!
I’m a little late on this, but the paperback for Neon Druid is now available on Amazon. Many incredible stories lurk inside, including mine, “The Burning of the Blueberries.” Now in paperback!
If you’re up for a little holiday horror, there’s plenty to be found at The Horror Tree’s Trembling With Fear update. Among the many spooky stories is “It Takes a Village” (fifth story down), about a ghost and a dreadful Christmas many years ago.
Neon Druid: An Anthology of Urban Celtic Fantasy collects stories dipping into the background of various western European folklore and draws into our modern world.
Among others you’ll find my horror story, “The Burning of the Blueberries,” about a man who joins a gentleman’s society, only to discover a dark secret.
It’s available right now on Kindle! Paperback coming soon!
Published by Mt. Misery Press.
