Stephanie Wytovich had me over for a special Pride Month Madhouse interview in Urban Legends and Cannibal Kings: A Guest Interview with Hailey Piper, where we went in-depth on Benny Rose, the Cannibal King. I’ll keep the site updated (technical issues aside) as info comes in such as cover and release date.Īs for interviews, I had technical difficulties that kept me from updating as they came: I’m ecstatic to announce that my first short story collection, Unfortunate Elements of My Anatomy, will be published in spring 2021 from The Seventh Terrace! Focusing on queer horror, isolation, and the monstrous feminine, the book will cover 18 stories, including a new novelette, “Recitation of the First Feeding.” Including two new short stories and a never-before-published novelette, Unfortunate Elements of My Anatomy digs deep inside us and clings to the beating nightmare heart you always knew was there. And try to “Forgive the Adoring Beast” as it scavenges a world of dead gods for tokens of bloody affection.
Superstitions thrive even in the distant future and across the stars when a colony shuttle mounts a witch trial in “Hairy Jack”. “The Law of Conservation of Death” dictates that a ghost pursue his prey across her every reincarnation. The universe unwinds to the tune of a malicious ice cream truck jingle in “We All Scream”. Love twisted into horrific shapes, nightmares driven by cruel music, and a world where what little light remains fractures the sky into midnight rainbows in eighteen stories tracing the dark veins of queer horror, isolation, and the monstrous feminine. The collection releases on and the ebook is up for pre-order on Amazon. Cover and interior art by the amazing Janice Blaine introduction by the wonderful Laurel Hightower. Feast your eyes on the cover for Unfortunate Elements of My Anatomy, my upcoming and first short story collection, published by The Seventh Terrace.
The body of this post features a treasure trove of unfortunate elements.
