So, usually the only news I’ve posted on my site has been in regards to my own fiction, but that’s just happened to be because no one has ever sent me stuff to promote. Well, that’s now changed! My friends at Flame Tree Press (home to many of the books I’ve reviewed in the past year, including this week’s Voodoo Heart by John Everson) have sent me over the informational packet regarding their first annual Creepy Carnival. During it, there will be readings, panel discussions, live Q&A, special swag, giveaways, and more — come on, that’s got to excite you. To make things easy, I’ve essentially copied and pasted the important information below. Make sure to follow them on social media for updates on it all.
