I'm very pleased to announced that Wraiths and Stays, which first appeared as a Guest Write when deliciously dark horror and paranormal mystery author Erin Cole interviewed me back in May 2011 has been accepted into the upcoming Frozen Fear Deluxe Anthology from Static Movement Press.
The antho. is being edited by Mark Crittenden, horror author and ed. of Red Skies Press which published Their Dark Masters, Tales of Extreme Vampire Horror in which my stories The Infanta Triptych and Walls of Flesh appeared. Thanks Mark!
Thrillers Killers 'n' Chillers
I'm getting my hands well and truly filthy scrabbling through the vaults of TK'n'C and have posted two crime stories up on the site so far. Sonia Gets Hers - a pacey tale of revenge with a twist by Copper Smith, and A Short Break by TK'n'C regular Keith Gingell; if you thought the UK's Mad Dogs series was great - you'll love this.
There are loads more stories waiting in the wings so I'm hoping to post the next one in the coming days.
TK'n'C on Twitter
If you're a Twitter user, the TK'n'C editors have started a new hashtag, so whenever you tweet about the site, if you add #tknc somewhere in your tweet, then Twitter will gather our tweets all together. Just type #tknc into Twitter's search box to see what I mean or go to http://twitter.com/#!/search/%23tknc.
A Zombie Cock and Bull Story
My mate and fellow TK'n'C ed, the infamous crime writer Col Bury has been venturing outside of his usual genre lately. He's strayed deep into my personal comfort zone of horror with a very naughty - and rib-tickling tale of zombie love and... bits. Read Supper Time, on Christopher Grant's new site Eaten Alive. And hear more about what Col has to say on the matter on Col's blog.
Planting a Seed of Horror
I have just finished reading the Kindle version of Ania Ahlborn's SEED and can wholeheartedly recommend it. Accidents and shadows, backwoods and children whose grins reach from one side of their face to another - this terrifying story throws you in at the deep end and takes you on a trembling ride of fear. Don't take anything for granted. I loved it.

ReplyDeleteCongrats on the acceptance, Lily! Mark's a great editor, and brings out the best in the stories he accepts.
ReplyDeleteAnd I checked out Col's piece on your rec. Funny, funny stuff.
Hey Lil, thanks for the mention, it's really appreciated. Great news about Wraiths and Stays - congrats! And, you're not only doing a top job over at TKnC, but here too! How the hell you fit everything in, I'll never know. You're obviously better at finding 'balance' than little old me.
ReplyDeleteBest,
Col
Ps. Cheers, Chris!
