Nightmare Magazine 39: December 2015

NIGHTMARE is an online horror and dark fantasy magazine. In NIGHTMARE's pages, you will find all kinds of horror fiction, from zombie stories and haunted house tales, to visceral psychological horror.
This month, we have original fiction from Damien Angelica Walters ("The Judas Child") and Caspian Gray ("The King of Ashland County"), along with reprints by Tim Lebbon ("Reconstructing Amy") and Nancy Etchemendy ("Honey in the Wound"). Over on our column on horror, "The H Word," we're exploring holiday horror, and of course we'll have author spotlights with our authors, a showcase on our cover artist, and a feature interview with author Kim Liggett.
"Big news this month, friends: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, publishers of my Best American Science Fiction and Fantasy (and the rest of the Best American series), have offered me the opportunity to edit a science fiction/fantasy (and horror) novel line for them—and naturally I agreed! The line will be called John Joseph Adams Books (their idea, not mine!), and will be a tightly-curated list of 7-10 titles per year. We’ll be pre- launching the line in early 2016 with new editions of three Hugh Howey novels: Beacon 23, Shift, and Dust—making them available via traditional publishing for the first time, and then the line will kick things off in earnest in early 2017 with our first batch of never-before-published works. If you’re a regular reader of my magazines and/or anthologies, then you should already have a good idea what to expect—and if you like my work as a short fiction editor, then I suspect you’ll like the novels I publish aswell. The John Joseph Adams Books website is still under development, but
if you bookmark johnjosephadamsbooks.com, that’ll take you to it when it’s ready."
