This has been a very productive month for me. I want to share some new books that are out or coming out VERY soon.
Death House - 4/16/2021 - This Raven & Drake anthology was a last-minute edition for me. I happened upon their post for a short story contest. They asked use to submitt a short for inclusion on the FB page and they would pick some favorites to include in the book. Boy was I surprised when they picked mine!
You know the house. The one at the end of the road down the long driveway that seems to have a permanent shadow hanging over its head. One that sends shivers up the spines of people who pass as they quicken their pace and bow their head in the hopes nothing will happen to them. The one that is the gossip of the water-cooler, yet no one really knows why.
In Death House, several talented authors take us on a journey through the houses they see in their nightmares. Ones that contain all manner of haunts, horror, death and destructions. Houses that may not simply be plucked from the imagination, but may in fact exist in reality.
Be wary of the house whose door you step through.
You can never be sure what is on the other side.
New Tales of Old Vol. 1 - 4/30/2021 - This Raven & Drake anthology of reinterpreted folk and fairy tales is one of my favorite concepts. I love taking things and twisting them into new outlooks and ideas. See if you can guess where my story "This Little Piggy" comes from originally.
Everybody loves a good tale of old, from the fairytales of Grimm to Greek and Norse mythology. And even the more obscure local legends from all around the world. In New Tales of Old an abundance of writers take some of their favourite tales of old and put their own unique twist on them. Throughout these pages you find a Snow White working as a stripper, an ugly duckling who tasted the rainbow, a Cinderellawho had a nervous breakdown and many more.So join us on a trip down the rabbit hole, on an adventure past the second star to the right and past that troll bridge - the one with the monster living underneath.
Dark Magic Drabbles - 5/1/2021 - This Eerie River collection of drabbles has possibly two of my first ever horror based drabbles. I have two in this anthology, and I am proud to be featured alongside of these talented authors.
There is darkness in magic and we have given life to that darkness.
Dark Magic is a collection of over two hundred bite-size drabbles of dark fantasy and horror.
Enter a world of curses and creatures, the hideous and the hexed, where love is cruel and victory is tainted. Where gods and demons hold sway over mortals, senses are enticed and spirits ensnared. Angels fall, dragons rise, shadows hide secrets and power comes from blood and bone and death itself.
