DARK FICTION: EDITING BEGINS ON NECRONOMICON CURATION

Editing has begun on Raffaele Pezzella/Eighth Tower's Dark Fiction: Pages of the Necronomicon anthology (official title pending), thanks to its diligent contributor, Sarah Walker.

My story is called "Spot", a Lovecraft/Shakespeare mashup, which combines components of Macbeth with "The Tree on the Hill". The "Spot" references Lady MacBeth's guilt, and in homage to H.P. Lovecraft/Duane W. Rimel's short story, the tale's "protagonist" is a "tree". 

"Spot" is told in three acts and offers heartwarming appearances by Cthulhu and Yog-Sothoth. 

It's nice to know that Pezzella's dream of publishing horror anthologies has come true, and that the continuation of such doesn't appear to be ending anytime soon. (Check Bizarrechats for further updates.)

 

DARK FICTION: FROM THE NECRONOMICON

Eighth Tower Publishing's next Dark Fiction anthology will crawl from "the pages of The Necronomicon", according to its cultivated curator, Raffaele Pezzella. 

My contribution to this volume will center on a Cthulhu sketch that links not only to H.P. Lovecraft, but the Macbeth legend, in particular the ersatz king's pressing lady. It's entitled "Spot". (Get it?)

"Spot" is monster-oriented enough to go beyond Cthulhu, with a guest appearance by Yog-Sothoth. I've also invented a unique creature for the tale: a Shakespearean consequence of murder and guilt (with a dab of Lovecraft's "The Tree on the Hill"). I introduced this idea decades ago in a mortifying venture called Chambers of Horrors. I trust my concept's revival will hit the (a-hem) spot, unlike that epic fail. 

Stay tuned for updates on this special, Pezzella curation. It holds such accursed potential!
