Greetings!
I hope everyone's doing well and looking forward to a great Halloween this weekend.
In the spirit of the season, I wanted to send a quick note to announce that Dark Regions Press is publishing my short story collection, Resurrection House, this Fall.
Many of you receiving this have had a direct or indirect hand in making this book a reality, and I'd like to thank you. Whether you've given me feedback on a story, offered me an encouraging word, done time at a convention with me, or even first published one of the stories collected in RH, your support over the years is greatly appreciated. This book would not have been possible otherwise.
Resurrection House gathers 10 stories, a mix of old and new, drawn from my work of the past eight years or so, and it includes some of my best horror writing. DRP is issuing it in two signed hardcover editions (one of which includes 2 extra stories) and a paperback edition, with a cover and illustrations by Jason Whitley.
Check out the online excerpts and story samples:

Please feel free to share this with anyone you think might be interested. And in the meantime, I'd love to hear from everyone about how you're doing and what you've been up to lately.
All the Best,
Jim

TODAY'S QUESTION: What is the scariest thing you've seen or read?
I don't really watch scary movies or read horror fiction, so for me, I have to say my mom's expression after I got my first F...Let me say...there are demons I rather face!
