DARK MOON BOOKS -- In
The Works...
The following books are also on Dark
Moon Books’ publication list and scheduled for release
within the next three months.
WRITE
of the LIVING DEAD
Two
redhead academics and a horror publisher walk into a
bar... during a zombie apocalypse. Armed with only their
wits and a fully-charged laptop battery, they hammered
out the world's darkest writing manual amidst the flurry
and chaos of gnashing teeth and rotting cadavers. Each
chapter of the handbook is devoted to a different genre
of writing--everything from academic writing (complete
with MLA and APA sample essays), business writing,
fiction and even poetry--all of it with a dark and
undead twist. The book's
co-authors (Araminta Star Matthews, Rachel Lee and Stan
Swanson) will have this one ready for launch at the 2012
World Horror Convention with a foreword by HWA
President, Rocky Wood.
Dark Tales of Lost Civilizations
(Edited by Eric J. Guignard) Darkness exists
everywhere, and in no place greater than those where
spirits and curses still reside. In "Dark Tales of Lost
Civilizations", you will unearth an anthology of
previously unpublished horror and speculative fiction
stories relating to civilizations that are lost, or have
been forgotten, or have been rediscovered, or perhaps
merely spoken about in great and fearful whispers.
Voracious! (Kevin McClintock)
A novella from the author of No Vacancies and Tenants
coming early 2012.
Rain (Jennifer Word) A
novella that will make you think twice the next time you
hear raindrops on your roof. Coming earl 2012.
The Pizza from Hell (Richard
Moore) You just never know when that grocery store
freezer door might open the gates of hell. Can you say
“clean up on aisle 13?” Coming early 2012.
The Best of Dark Moon Digest
will be a special hard-cover edition (with dust jacket)
of the best stories printed in the first six issues of
Dark Moon Digest. It will launch at the 2012 World
Horror Convention in Salt Lake City. Pre-orders for this
limited edition (500 copies only!) will begin in
January.
Also on the 2012 schedule is The
Ultimate Survival Guide for Humanity by Max Booth
III and Stan Swanson, Abattoir by Christopher
Leppek and Emanuel Isler and Night of the Scream
Queen: Kiss of the Gator Guy by Mike McCarty and
Linnea Quigley (yes, that's right, she of The Return
of the Living Dead fame). We are also planning 3-4
more anthologies possibly including volume 2 of the
highly successful Frightmares flash fiction
collection.
Slices of Flesh
is also in the works. This one's gonna rock! Check out
additional information
on this flash fiction collection when you get a chance.
Dark Moon Books only publishes horror. If you write
paranormal romance with vampires and werewolves, it is
probably not our thing unless there is a real "scare"
factor involved. Think Stephen King not Stephenie Meyer!
The story style does not matter. It
can be anything from a slasher type story (although we
have to admit right up front, those are not our
favorites) to a humorous tale or anything in between.
But most importantly, it must be an entertaining horror
short story. We must want to turn that page to see what
happens next and how things end. Oh, and don’t forget
scary. That is, perhaps, the most important
consideration. Scary, gruesome, macabre, gory,
frightening, shocking dark and suspenseful--well, you
get the idea.
We also publish Dark Moon
Digest, a quarterly publication for horror fans.
