prisms-hardcover-edited-by-darren-speegle-michael-bailey-5167-p

Although this book will not be published through Written Backwards (scheduled to be released through PS Publishing in 2021), I am proud to announce the next dark science-fiction anthology co-edited by the always-incredible Darren Speegle, and Michael Bailey.

What is the prism, in this case? The dispersion of humankind into the spectrum of herself / himself; an object, a place, or something figurative; the human condition as it relates to the self, or to humankind in general; ascension; translation …

“The Girl with Black Fingers” – Roberta Lannes
“The Shimmering Wall” – Brian Evenson

“Encore for an Empty Sky” –  Lynda Rucker
“Saudade” – Richard Thomas
“There is Nothing Lost” – Erinn L. Kemper
“The Motel Business” – Michael Marshall Smith
“The Gearbox” – Paul Meloy
“District to Cervix: The Time Before We Were Born” (novelette) – Tlotlo Tsamaase
“Here Today and Gone Tomorrow” – Chaz Brenchley
“Daylight Robbery” – Anna Taborska
“The Secrets of My Prison House” – J. Lincoln Fenn
