Inside of a month of getting my guidelines up for TABLOID PURPOSES II, I got the compete anthology and this is thing I am very pleased with the results and the stories written by the contributers rocked. I cannot pick a favorite story on this set but the authors that will be editors choice are Barbara Malenky, Charles Hush, Ron Capshaw, Macey Wuesthoff, Casey Gordon, Muirray Leeder, Everette Bell, and Jeff Skinner. I am very pleased with how this came out but it took some feeling out because this is the first anthology I used Open Office to edit with. After getting torn to pieces by
Horror-Web, I am ready to bring out authors that are more than willing to open a can of whoopass. It also features a line up from the original TABLOID PURPOSES, half them came back and this time around even the Science Fiction has teeth. Macey's new story in this one is titled
To Write A Wrong and will feature the Eraserhead Press reprint of Everette Bell's novella,
Deadlands. Nicholas Mounts closes the book off with the short story,
Where Have The Children Gone?. Stories in this included are from the owner of
HorrorMasters.com. The preview story on the anthology is written by Paul Haines. The Science Fiction stories in this are written by Casey Gordon, then the horror story that is quickly becoming a favorite with me are the ones writh by Barbara Malenky. I will be posting a link to one of her stories as it is read on
Blood Rose Mag. Her background as a writer is a True Crime author, and I cannot wait to see what her true crime novels will turn out.
