A future project is to draw in writers for a short story anthology. The 'theme' is to be decided - but verse and song lyrics will be invited in too.
Submission guidelines, word counts and deadlines will be announced in the coming months.
We're looking forward to this!
But we need to know! Our worlds aren't going to build themselves, goddamit!

I LOVED this wonderfully mysterious novella, it reads like a dark and ancient folk-tale. Told in dialect, the narrative voice is just gorgeous! You can get a copy from @roadsongbooks.bsky.social now! βΊοΈπ

According to an email from a reader this week, my novella Coldwell is "Atmospheric, evocative, rooted in time and place, poetic and a bit creepy."
