The Reading: Lovecraftian Cheese Burger Acceptance First for New Decade

Genre and theme:  Horror and dark fiction involving greasy Lovecraftian influenced stories.  Think unconventional stories with Cthulhu such as Cthulhu pokemon, Cthulhu trying to get a date, stories like that.

Deadline:  OPEN  Close Jan 15th 2020

It seems Deadman’s Tome is at it again (cf. MONSTER PARTY, December 27, et al.).  The anthology to be called DEEP FRIED HORROR:  CTHULHU CHEESE BURGER.  And note, [image error]fellow writers, that “Mr. Deadman” is still reading for it.  But I, I bit early, sending a short piece about a poet and a reading gone wrong — horribly wrong! — on December 28.  This a reprint, to keep myself honest (and, well, the pay isn’t all that huge either, but, hey, this one’s fun!), originally published in UNIVERSE HORRIBILIS by Third Flatiron Publishing in 2013.  So, anyhow, came the answer today, short and sweet, the first story acceptance of 2020:  You got the theme down!  Off-beat Lovecraftian stories.  I’ll send a contract soon.

And there you have it.
