Alt-Dead

I'm in the Alt-Dead anthology due out this Autumn.

As you can see from the cover illustration the theme is horror stories about feet. So you get a story about a murderer who kills people with the overpowering stench of foot odour emanating from his hosiery in 'Sock It To Me.' Then there's the tale of a lady who accidentally sprinkles her toes with voodoo dust instead of talcum powder, turning her feet into deadly zombies in 'My Feet Are Killing Me.' A powerful mediation on the nature of suicide in 'Toe Be Or Not Toe Be.' And my own tale about a psychotic army of geriatric shoemakers in 'A Load of Old Cobblers.'

There's a slim chance I may be making this all up.

That reminds me, I've got a voucher for a free session of reflexology. Must take that up some time before the end of March ...

Well done. Always a good feeling when that acceptance drops through the real or virtual post box.

Cheers
Terry

Ooops, I'd kind of assumed you were making it up! Is it for real? If so, my congratulations too. Sounds like fun!

The book's real. It just doesn't contain any stories about feet. Well, as far I know anyway.
