New England: Weird

When thinking of the weirdest parts of the United States, one does not necessarily think of New England. However, its extensive history is no stranger to oddness.

New England is said to be the birthplace of the hamburger, sideburns were named after a former governor, PEZ was invented there, and the first public library was established in New Hampshire. Also, let us not forget, nearly everything is void or prohibited in the tiny state of Rhode Island. Now, adding to the oddness of the North Eastern United States, we present you with New England: Weird.

This book has been on a strange journey, in fact, it nearly didn’t happen at all. For over a year, the pages that follow have been passed back and forth from one editor to another, swapping hands with publishers along the way, before finally landing where it stands now. What you are about to read is not necessarily horror, bizarro, whimsical writings, or anything in between. What you are about to read is simply a collection of odd tales, each set in New England, written by some of the most talented writers I know, each presenting you with an amazing variety that makes up the whole of New England: Weird

Featuring Tales by Catfish McDaris, Cameron Shifflet, Garvan Giltinan, David S. Pointer, Charie D. Lamarr, David Anderson, Anna Haney, Brian Barr, Thomas Olivieri, Donald Armfield, Essel Pratt, Roma Gray

M v F: Death Personified- Book 2

Dig into the most brutal contest ever.

Male verses female. A slight suggestion for theme and...GO!

What you, dear reader, have before you is the result of a violent, bloody, gruesome battle to reign supreme. Each set of stories (from one male and one female) was sent to a team of judges. Nerves began twitching and egos sagged. Would the males or females be declared the Best Horror Writers of 2015?

The results were returned. Jaws dropped. The contest was declared a tie! The winners from each set were pitted again. There was a winner, but only by one story. The females won; as soon as that was said, threats of revenge gushed forth. The men were ready to fire back.

 In a double anthology, decide for yourself who should have won. Do you agree with the judges? Let the battle continue...Male vs Female. Female vs Male. To the death.

Book Two Features the Winning Men and their Female seconds: Essel Pratt, Dona Fox, T.S. Woolard, Alice J. Black, Andrew Freudenberg, Brenda Evans, Jim Goforth, Christina Engela, Michael Noe, Dani Brown, Stuart Keane, Amanda M. Lyons, John Ledger, catt Dahman

Trollkind: Under The Bridge

The troll has long been with us, a beast that dwelled under the bridges and in the dark hollows of our world. Often cruel, misshapen, and always hungry it came and went on its own terms, a monster which took and hid. He was a beast we left behind in the dark ages, the mark of an era of superstition and darkness-- or so we thought. Here you will find trolls of many sorts, monster, man, and gentle, if conflicted, ally all of them very much a part of our modern world.

Lost Gods and Forgotten Cities

Tales of sword and sorcery come to us across the ages, across worlds, and across time. Legends about the warriors and priests, the lost gods and forgotten cities of old, and the things that were done in their time, live within the fires of man. The words of the storyteller who sits there by the flames to speak of it all with great reverence and his own special magic take us to other realms as we seek to understand and to build our own kingdoms of might and magic. The storyteller is the soul of man, the flame and the wick by which he thrives. Here then you will find such storytellers and the worlds they weave with their tales dark and light, humorous and stark, uplifting and bleak. Heroes and monsters so bold they could only be forged in the fire of the spirit, the imagination of man.

For the Love of Leelah: An Anthology About Souls

**ALL PROCEEDS GO TO SUICIDE PREVENTION AND SUPPORT FOR LGBTQ YOUTH**

In December of 2014 the world was rocked by the loss of a young trans woman named Leelah Alcorn, a young girl who, feeling trapped and alone without support in her community, ended her life violently on a wintry Ohio highway in a desperate plea that the world see kids like her and do something to stop their pain, to help them be who they were despite the conventions of society. Leelah was not alone, one of many young kids we lost that year and in the coming months, tragedy after tragedy which moved all of us who saw to take action, to do something to stand for the trans kids, let them know we saw In December of 2014 the world was rocked by the loss of a young trans woman named Leelah Alcorn, a young girl who, feeling trapped and alone without support in her community, ended her life violently on a wintry Ohio highway in a desperate plea that the world see kids like her and do something to stop their pain, to help them be who they were despite the conventions of society. Leelah was not alone, one of many youth lost that year and in the coming months, tragedy after tragedy, which moved all of us who saw to take action, to do something to stand for the trans kids, let them know we saw them, their spirit, and that they mattered, had every right to claim the long lives ahead of them for themselves. “For Love of Leelah: An Anthology About Souls” was created in the name of Leelah’s spirit, to honor her and every other transgender youth who ever needed it past and present, here and tragically gone. In so doing we found that cis and trans blended together, the differences between the authors fell to the wayside and the beauty of the human spirit came through in so many forms. May this anthology benefit LGBT youth the world over and may we never let their songs cease, so long as they need us to hear.
