“Black Hand Side” was originally published in Literary Orphan (the Black Thought Special Issue). “Jessica and the Mattress” was originally published in Seek It: Writers and Artists Do Sleep. “An Occurrence at Osceola Avenue” and “Heavy” were both published in Brilliant Flash Fiction. “The Voyeur” was published in both Mothership: Tales of Afrofuturism and Beyond and Frightmares: A Fistful of Flash Fiction.
I would like to extend a special thanks to the editors of these fine journals and anthologies: Mensah Demary, Elaine Batcher, Kim Aubrey, Aurore Lebas, Paul Beckman, Bill Campbell, Edward Austin Hall, and Stan Swanson.
