@undertow.bsky.socialReposted by @seanbirnie.bsky.socialPlease consider grabbing a copy of Pale Grey Idol. We'd like to carry on with it. Perfect October reading. We'll open to submissions likely in the year, if feasible. ie. it doesn't lose money. Affordably priced in print and eBook.
@undertow.bsky.socialReposted by @seanbirnie.bsky.socialSome may recall the great run we had with my 'lit rag' Shadows and Tall Trees. A Shirley Jackson win, several stories reprinted in "Best Of's. Our new lit rag, Pale Grey Idol, harkens back to that aesthetic. 100 pages at 5" x 8". A little gem of dark wonders.

@seanbirnie.bsky.socialUnless of course such a thing already exists, which it should.
@seanbirnie.bsky.socialSomeone should give me a load of money to edit a science fiction/horror anthology called, after Brecht, BAD NEW THINGS.
@seanbirnie.bsky.socialGreat stuff
