Thrilled to be a part of this! My story ‘The Yellow Raincoat’ has been included in Midnight Echo, which is the official magazine of the Australasian Horror Writers Association (AHWA). I say magazine but with so many entries it is, for all intents and purposes, an anthology. This issue #20 is being guest edited by the very talented Marty Young, and the theme is “Beginnings.” Everything has a beginning. Every serial killer has their first kill, every cult its first member, every cryptid its first sighting, every doorway opens for the first time.
ME20 explore such origins. Tales where the first step into darkness is taken, perhaps hesitantly, or perhaps with delight – and whatever that darkness may be. Dark and mean tales, uncomfortable ones…
A great representation of Antipodean horror. I’m excited for my work to be alongside so many talented writers.
