An Oddity to be reprinted in the States

My Medusa-themed story An Oddity, which appeared in the January issue of Schlock! Webzine, is now scheduled to be reprinted in an American anthology. More details later. 

 

An Oddity was first published here in January 2024. I was especially pleased with the cover illustration of the Gorgon, painted by the brilliant Sixteenth Century Italian artist Caravaggio.

At the moment this can be read for free online here, though I would heartly recommend buying the magazine either as a kindle eBook or a paperback. It will definitely not break your pocket. To order a copy from Amazon UK click on this link. It's only £4.04.

Two more stories accepted for publication in 2023

Yesterday I found out two of my stories will see print later this year, one a reprint and the other new.

    The reprint is a story called Swan Song, which originally appeared in The Ninth Black Book of Horror. This will be reprinted in August in Schlock Webzine.

    The new story is a sword and sorcery tale called The Dark Priestdom, which will appear in the next issue of Savage Realms Monthly. This will mark my second story in that great magazine. It's also a prequel to Welgar the Cursed, which will be in Lyndon Perry's Swords & Heroes anthology in May.
