A banner shows the little ghosts logo and says “Little Ghosts Book Club Presents GREEN FUSE BURNING by Tiffany Morris Friday March 20 6-8pm”
The back cover description of the book… The debut novella from the Elgin Award winning author of Elegies of Rotting Stars. After the death of her estranged father, artist Rita struggles with grief and regret. There was so much she wanted to ask him-about his childhood, their family, and the Mi'kmaq language and culture from which Rita feels disconnected. But when Rita's girlfriend Molly forges an artist's residency application on her behalf, winning Rita a week to paint at an isolated cabin, Rita is both furious and intrigued. The residency is located where her father grew up. On the first night at the cabin, Rita wakes to strange sounds. Was that a body being dragged through the woods? When she questions the locals about the cabin's history, they are suspicious and unhelpful. Ignoring her unease, Rita gives in to dark visions that emanate from the forest's lake and the surrounding swamp. She feels its pull, channelling that energy into art like she's never painted before. But the uncanny visions become more insistent, more intrusive, and Rita discovers that in the swamp's decay the end of one life is sometimes the beginning of another.

Just re-read Daphne du Maurier's "The Lordly Ones" for the horror-writing workshop I'm teaching.
Folkloric gothic masterpiece. So oppressively sad.
The Breaking Point is one of *the* great dark literature collections.
Thanks for listening! :)

SHELTER FOR THE DAMNED, Mike Thorn (2021)
Unsettling haunted house riff. Three teenaged boys stumble across a shack that exerts a strange pull. Thorn (great horror author name) brings a perceptive empathy to his adolescents while delivering a propulsive frightmare.

Cassidy McFadzean’s Crying Dress captures seasons as an artistic expression occupying our internal state. Reviewer Margaryta Golovchenko reflects on the seasons presented in individual sections as the “self that never stops growing, despite the weather.” Read the full review here: buff.ly/nZKdJUc
