Teachers of Terror Take Note

Dissections: The Journal of Contemporary Horror just released their May 2009 special issue on "issues of teaching the horror genre in the classroom."  Sure, I'm in there with a discussion of "learning objectives" in a horror course, but with essays like Doug Ford's "The Sublime Trials of Jack Ketchum: Teaching 'The Girl Next Door' in the Era of Torture P**n" and poems about classic movie actors by Bryan Dietrich, you know you're getting something as fascinating as it is educational.

Darkness on the Edge: A Bruce Springsteen Anthology

PS Publishing is now taking orders for Darkness on the Edge: Tales Inspired by the Songs of Bruce Springsteen. It will soon be available in a signed and unsigned limited edition hardcover.  My story is called "The Hungry Heart" -- sort of like Poe meets the Boss.  Other contributors include Sarah Langan, Gary Braunbeck, Elizabeth Massie, Lawrence C. Connolly and lots of other great dark fantasy writers.  Edited by Harrison Howe, with cover art by the infamous JK Potter. Definitely worth a look!  The limited edition is available here, and likely to sell out quickly.

Featuring stories by Bentley Little, Gary Braunbeck, Matt Warner, Cullen Bunn, Jeff Strand, and many many more, this is a book of stories that you won't want to miss.
