Just in case you missed it, my western story "The Home Place" was recently mentioned elsewhere (thank you, readers!) and you can read it yourself as Full Speed Publishing Kindle Original story! 1889, Indian Territory. Jim Maddern brought his family into a new world, to start a new life, with dreams of owning the best horse ranch west of the Mississippi.

It's been a long wait since issue seven came out, but the new issue of ODM, number eight, is finally out and includes my second publication of 2022, my third Azuma Kuromori story, "Angel Scales!" It's a little extra late, as it's cover-dated December, but came out this month - that's fine, though, it doesn't diminish the contents!
The publisher's blurb reads: This issue is packed with both fiction and non-fiction – including lots of reviews – in fact we have the first in a semi-regular column, Dicing With Death, which will cover games of some relevance. Once again we’ve sought out tales which show the sheer breadth of the sub-genre. If you think ‘occult detectives’ are simply a few Victorian amateurs, an out-of-luck noir PI in a trench-coat, or a bit of urban fantasy, you must have missed our earlier issues. In these pages, we range across time and continents, from worrying peculiarities to outright horror. Authors include Melanie Atherton Allen, Brandon Barrows, Rebecca Buchanan, Robert Guffey, Rhys Hughes, D.G. Laderoute, Paul StJohn Mackintosh, Andrew Neil MacLeod, Jonathon Mast, Uchechukwu Nwaka, C.L. Raven, Carsten Schmitt, I.A. Watson and Cristina L. White. With cover art by Stefan Keller and interior illustrations by Autumn Barlow, Mutartis Boswell and Andy Paciorek. Get your copy here!
