Tenth Anniversary Celebration Author Spotlight

Oct 31, 2015 16:18

Happy Hallowe'en!

To continue our Tenth Anniversary festivities celebrating a community that encourages and supports its members as they reach for their dreams, we're spotlighting our authors who have gone on to be published outside of fandom.

Today, we’re shining the spotlight on Shiv. Writing as Antioch Grey, she has two stories in Story Spring Publishing’s Thoroughly Modern Monsters, a 2013 short story anthology edited by J.L. Aldis and two more stories in Aldis’s upcoming anthology, Immanence.


The stories in Thoroughly Modern Monsters offer tantalizing glimpses at how the icons of horror - vampires, demons, ogres, and trolls, to name a few - would function in today’s world. Antioch’s two stories reflect this basic theme, but they couldn’t be more different from one another.

In “The Devil Makes Work for Idle Hands,” an incubus meets a demon near the back door to Hell, with chilling results.

In “The Proper Task of Life,” Susan, a tourist, meets an artist and his friend, who is definitely not what he seems. But then, perhaps, nobody is.

The Petulant Poetess congratulates Shiv on her frighteningly excellent success!

Boo!
