It’s hard to believe that we’re already half-way into the second week of October, but it’s true. That means the deadline for Submissions for the World Unknown Review is coming up pretty quickly! Submissions will close after October 31st, 2013. At the time of writing this post, I have received no submissions, which means the…

“The glory of a nation could endure through the ages. What his comrades failed to fully comprehend was that it must be oiled with human blood.” “French Quarter Fiction: The Newest Stories of America’s Oldest Bohemia” edited by Joshua Clark I am a huge fan of anthologies, so much so that I’m attempting to start…

“‘I smell Ssark on the wind,” Tayahyla said, her face made of stone. ‘That reek is unmistakeable, a hunting party, though a small one. Still, we’d better move quickly before they start taking to the idea of Human flesh to break their fast.’” As you may have realized, not only did I skipp Sunday’s Round…
