More July Madness…
For two posts running, I have been describing the July madness here at MEF headquarters. I’m here to tell you, Neighbors, it ain’t over yet. As of this morning, we were at seven new acceptances and eight published stories. But the month ain’t over folks. Another acceptance just arrived on the virtual doorstep. Make it eight and eight, sports fans. Yikes! A record-breaking month and no doubt about it.
I’d love to sit around and palaver, but there just isn’t time. So, enough nonsense from me, Lovely Readers! I hope you enjoy this latest bit of new literary fiction. Meanwhile, don’t miss any upcoming stories. You can stay tuned for all the latest by following the MEF blog:

Last but not least, allow me to plug a book. What can I say? I need to pay the virtual rent and you need some summer reading. That said, how about a great collection of really dark short stories? That’s right, folks, it’s here! Indeed, hot off the presses, The Wrong Name awaits your hungry reader eyes:
The Wrong Name
Stories from the darker edge
The Wrong Name – Stories from the Darker Edge, stories of the darkness that lies within us, and the occasional glimmer of hope that keeps us afloat in the shadows. Doppelgangers and crones, artificial and human intelligence gone wrong, murder, revenge, tragedies embraced, and fates narrowly avoided. Reluctant heroes tire of the chase and ghosts relive the past. Bodies must be disposed of, corpses arise, and dreams damned. Here is magick, for good or ill. Twenty-one tales of darkness, and the occasional glimmer of hope that keeps us afloat in the shadows. Welcome, Reader, to The Wrong Name.
