Short Story - “Feed the Forest” (weird horror) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This story’s probably pretty difficult to find unless you live in Vancouver, Canada, because that’s the only place you can get copies of “Chthonic Lit.” Thankfully, their exclusivity period was only 3 months from publication, and that has now passed, so I can share this with you.
