The ARCs for Silent Nightmares are Out
Advance Reader Copies (ARCs) are how publishers approach corporate book sellers and tastemakers. The dirty secret is that the very limited number of ARCs cost oodles more to publish than the actual book itself. Limited number = higher cost per. If you ever find yourself with an ARC, treat it with respect and it will be worth so much more than a first edition.
At least six of your fellow subscribers are on the roster. In the next anthology, Michael and I are planning to include at least six new names.
The publication date for Silent Nightmares is Sept. 29th, 2026. It’s positioned for the Christmas season. My congratulations to everyone who’s debuting here.






Congrats again to my friend Wil Dalton who made this cut!
The beat-up ARC of John Waters' 'Carsick' that someone left in a give-away pile in the lobby of my building came home with me and instantly became one of my most prized possessions.
Congrats to everyone who made the cut for Silent Nightmares. I can't wait to read all of your stories!
