Award Winning Horror Shorts
 The short story Moth and Rust has just won first place in the 14th Annual Garden State Horror Writers Short Story Contest. This story has a long history. It originally began as a novel about zombies in a new housing development and was titled Creeping Rot (I've since recycled the name). This never panned out, but the story, of a somewhat zombie-ish old man and his grandson pretty much wrote itself. It was submitted to both Weird Magazine and Cemetery Dance. Both obviously passed, but I knew the story had potential as both editors sent personal notes saying how close the story had made to the final cut. As a whim, I scoured the web for writing contests, and submitted to two (The other was the Bards and Sages, below). I believe that the Garden State Horror Writers won't publish this piece. They only offer the Graversen Award and the prize money. If this is the case, I'll be sure to get this in print somewhere. After all, it is an award winner.
Zombie Maker won 3rd place in the Bards and Sages annual horror fiction contest. The contest entailed writing a "classic" monster story – you know, vampires, werewolves, monsters from sewn together body parts. I chose Zombie Maker because it was about traditional Caribbean voodoo.Head to the site to check the details and read the excerpt. Also, the story will appear in the upcoming 2008 Bards and Sages Anthology.
