Miss Sunflower
Once a beautiful sunflower pageant queen, Jenny Parks now suffers from Alzheimer’s in her early fifties. She gardens and reads, but struggles with the piano. Some days are good. More days are bad. Of course, her three adult children are of no help regarding her condition. Her oldest son Keaton is retired from professional football and spends all his time being immature. He carelessly spends his hard-earned money and has a playful time with his friends. Then there’s Steven, Jenny’s middle son, who chooses to live in a bizarre cult in Idaho and wears a black bonnet. And Jenny’s youngest son, Benson ... well, she hasn’t seen him in decades, and for good reason. Thank goodness she has her best friend and lover, Cara Dixon, to care for her. Sweet, charming, and vampire/mystery writer Cara. What would Jenny do without her? Cara is her life, soul, and mind. She’s Jenny’s lifeline these days, and her heart. When Jenny requests a short visit to her family’s cabin north of Pittsburgh, Cara agrees to take her. There some of Jenny’s memories return, but emotional breakdowns occur, and Miss Sunflower might just lose her crown -- and mind -- for good. Can Cara help now?
Here is your heart
As I read the poems I was moved, more than I ever expected, and then made angry, disgusted and frustrated that individuals are still being denied fair opportunities, are attacked and made to feel less, to be devalued. I was also inspired and felt the beauty of the poems... Avril Lee, Chair, Diversity & Inclusion Network, CIPR I was so genuinely impressed by the quality of entries. Impressed, too, by the diversity of voice, style, and lived experience. There was an abundance of passion, mainly, I believe, due to the addition of the ‘childhood racism’ category. The entries... were evocative and profound. Serena Malcolm, poet and Black in White Poetry Competition 2022 judge

Black in White Community Collection Volume 2
This book, like its predecessor, is dedicated to all those who see and value the benefits of equality, diversity and inclusion, and who labour actively in whatever capacity within this field to help open the minds of those who are the reason why these poems have been written...

Damnable Tales
This richly illustrated anthology gathers together classic short stories from masters of supernatural fiction including M. R. James, Sheridan Le Fanu and Arthur Machen, alongside lesser-known voices in the field including Eleanor Scott and Margery Lawrence, and popular writers less bound to the horror genre, such as Thomas Hardy and E.

Blood on Satan's Claw
Beware the buried skull underfoot and watch out for children with fur on their backs... Blood on Satan's Claw is widely regarded as part of the ‘unholy trinity’ of cult classics which gave birth to the film genre that would become known as folk horror. Along with The Wicker Man and Witchfinder General, it found new ways to terrify audiences using elements of superstition and folklore. Now, fifty years after its release, readers can experience the unearthing of this terror in the film’s first official novelisation: a compelling and frightening retelling of the fate of unfortunate villagers sacrificed by their own children as devil worship infiltrates their rural existence. Written by the film’s original screenwriter Robert Wynne-Simmons and featuring haunting new illustrations from Richard Wells, it is an atmospheric and defining cult classic in the making.
