Unnatural Tales of the Jackalope

 Unnatural Tales of the Jackalope with my weird western Tangle Crowned Devil is now available.

This was a call that I took as a challenge to see how I might pull off a horror story featuring jackalopes. It took some pondering and the  reworking a different Porter Rockwell tale--that and being very loose with a Zuni legend, but I'm rather pleased with it.

That and its always nice to be in a new table of contents with a new group of fellow writers.

The paperback ought to be available shortly as well ( a day or two) and the editor John Palisano has posted that it will be a measly 7.95!!! I need to find out how he is able to do such a great deal.

Jackalope Roundup

Put together by John Palisano and Western Legends Publishing this promises to be truly strange horror collection--not the only one of mine coming soon ~Wandering Weeds as well, but for the moment I thought I'd list the TOC and see if any of you recognize some of these other contributors.
