To Wallow in Ash & Other Sorrows by Sam Richard
Winner of the 2019 Wonderland Award for Best Collection, To Wallow in Ash & Other Sorrows is a bleak and unflinching look at widowhood through the lens of horror fiction. Written in the early days of widowhood and in the spirit of J.G. Ballard, Kathe Koja, and Georges Bataille, these stories are a cross-section of literary splatterpunk, transgressive fiction, and weird horror, which explore loss, grief, and the alluring comforts found within the heart of oblivion. This Revised & Expanded version includes the never-before-seen novelette There is Power in the Blood.
"With To Wallow in Ash & Other Sorrows, Sam Richard has crafted a book of stories that will rip your heart right out of your chest... and it's absolutely worth every moment."

To Offer Her Pleasure by Ali Seay
After the death of his father and his mother taking off, it becomes clear to Ben that the only thing he can count on, is no one to count on. Until he finds the book. One that calls forth a shadowy horned figure.
She comes with unexpected gifts and the comfort of a dependable presence. And she asks for very little in return, really. The more Ben offers her, the easier it gets.
Sometimes, family requires more than a little sacrifice…
“…Seay wastes no time in snaring her readers with sacrifice and dark promises, kept in the bloodies way.”
