Such a thrill to be part of a magazine's first issue! My latest story "Between the Blinds" haunts these pages!
“It is the evilest of eves in the kingdoms of the realm when the visitors in the sky change everything.”

Find a very different sort of fairytale in @amandacecelia.bsky.social’s new story “Once Upon an Invasion.”

This is so surreal...
This Way Lies Madness has been officially nominated for the Bram Stoker Award! My story Nothing in the Boy is included in this anthology. I'm so honored to share the pages with such powerful, haunting, unsettling voices. Horror dreams come true are strange things... Eeek!
P.S. Remember when I said I'd be better about posting exciting news?
Well, that was a lie, because I've known for weeks that This Way Lies Madness (the Flame Tree anthology featuring my story Nothing and the Boy) has made it onto the preliminary ballot for the Bram Stoker Awards!!!
✨✨ So honored to have a brand new story out in the first issue of The Phantom Pulse! ✨✨

I have a new story out in Kaleidotrope! In "Once Upon an Invasion," all your favorite fairy-tale princesses make first contact! Think Close Encounters of the Third Kind abducts Disney.
Plus, discover the REAL fate of the Big Bad Wolf...
This was a blast to write!

In the tradition of Poe’s The Tell-tale Heart, This Way Lies Madness presents fictional interpretations of madness from some of the biggest names in
The fine hairs prickle along their necks, wine ripples in goblets, soils quake in gardens, and the air hums as ominously as dark-throated wise women invoking a curse.
Issue #1 kicks off with "Between the Blinds" by Amanda Cecelia Lang, a story spinning the cycle of regret and heartache. @amandacecelia.bsky.social
