Note from the editor
Where genres mesh beneath moonlight to conjure beautiful, dark tales…This publication is a home for mixed-genre fiction, poetry, and experimental styles — horror, sci-fi, fantasy, romance, erotica, weird, New weird — quality writing that’s a bit odd and some shade of dark should be sent our way posthaste.
