KJK Publishing has released another in its long-running The Horror Collection series, edited by Kevin J. Kennedy, and this time, it's the Obsidian Edition, now available in ebook and trade paperback formats. This one features my story of Appalachian horror, "Willow Bend," along with 16 other tales of stone-cold terror (see the table of contents below).
"Willow Bend" was originally slated to appear in 2018, in an anthology titled Voices in the Darkness from Ulthar Press, but following the sad, untimely passing of Ulthar's owner, Sam Gafford, the book never happened. So, I'm mighty pleased that the story will at last see the light of day in an awesome new anthology. The Amazon ordering link is posted below.
I still have more frightening fiction forthcoming from Mr. Kennedy and KJK Publishing, so... beware the future, my friends!
