Tim Lebbon: Author Interview

Dark bleatings, my horror-loving tribe! Tim Lebbon is, frankly, one of the sturdiest staples of the horror genre. A lover of cake, and an author that writes uncharacteristically scary stuff considering what a nice person he is. He’s also one of the featured authors in werewolf anthology, Strange New Moons, a book I co-edited (I…

Scorpion Girl – by Janeen Webb

Dark bleatings, my sting-tailed tribe! Today, I’m talking about a book that will seem like an odd choice for me because *gasp* it’s not quite horror, but I absolutely LOVED it. We all have our demons. In Scorpion Girl, women of all ages face theirs. From battlefields to bedrooms, in these stories nothing is what it…
