New Spinetingler

The new issue of Spinetingler is live and, as Patrick Shawn Bagley so eloquently put it, "locked and loaded". There's a double dose of short stories, plenty of reviews and interviews.
My thanks to Jack Getze, who has remained with us as the editor, and Damon Caporaso and Jay Tomio of BSC Review, who finance the operation and make it possible. I would also like to thank Mark, who looks after all the design work and site maintenance. We have faced a lot of obstacles with this issue, but are thrilled to finally have it available for your reading pleasure.

Jonathan Woods
Jake Nantz
and Kieran Shea.
Also, try a shot of surrealist fiction from Ulrich Haarburste who provides a Pushed for Answers slot ... here
