Meet the Authors: Whispers in Darkness

It's official! The stories for Circlet's upcoming Lovecraftian erotica anthology have been selected at last! Here's the line up for this deliciously twisted new collection.

Angela Caperton
"Sheik"

Angela Caperton’s eclectic erotica spans many genres, including romance, horror, fantasy, and what she calls contemporary-with-a-twist. Look for her stories published with Cleis, Circlet Press, Drollerie Press, eXtasy Books, and in the indie magazine Out of the Gutter. Visit Angela at http://blog.angelacaperton.com

Kannan Feng
"A Reflection of Kindness"

Kannan Feng lives next door to Lake Michigan and her current interests
include mushroom recipes, deconstructing superheroes, oracles and the
Byzantine Empire. She has been previously published in Strange
Horizons, Alien Skin, Ruthie's Club and Oysters and Chocolate. She
will welcome great fortune and love in the new year (in bed) and her
lucky numbers are 5, 8, 22 and 19.

Annabeth Leong
"The Artist's Retreat"

Annabeth Leong's erotica has appeared in Every Night Erotica, Oysters and Chocolate and in Cleis Press's Girl Crush, Passion, and Lesbian Cops anthologies. Visit her blog at http://annabethleong.blogspot.com/ or follow her on Twitter at http://twitter.com/AnnabethLeong.

Bernie Mojzes
"Ink"

Much to his embarrassment, Bernie Mojzes has outlived Lord Byron, Percy Shelley, Janice Joplin and the Red Baron, without even once having been shot down over Morlancourt Ridge. Having failed to achieve a glorious martyrdom, he has instead turned his hand to the penning of paltry prose (a rather wretched example of which you currently hold in your hands), in the pathetic hope that he shall here find the notoriety that has thus far proven elusive.

Should Pity, or perhaps a Perverse Curiosity move you to seek him out, he can be found at http://www.kappamaki.com.

Alex Picchetti
"When the Stars Come"

Alex Picchetti knows that a good superhero must always be wary of villains, and so cannot reveal her day job. She lives near Toronto with her three spoiled cats.

Monique Poirier
"The Flower of Innsmouth"

Monique Poirier lives and works in Providence, RI. Her works also
appear in Circlet anthologies Like Clockwork, Like a Prince, Like
Butterflies in Iron, Like and Iron Fist, and Like Heaven and Hell. She
can be reached at Poirier.Monique@gmail.com.

Elizabeth Reeve
"Dreams in the Laundromat"

Elizabeth Reeve lives in the Sonoran Desert with her husband, a pair
of standard-issue writers’ cats, an extremely belligerent parakeet,
and a backyard full of wild-growing nightshade. She's never had a
problem with rats in the walls--human-faced or otherwise--but predicts
that if she did, the cats would be completely useless. The parakeet
could probably kick Brown Jenkin's ass, though. You can find her
(Elizabeth, not the parakeet) online at http://elizabethreeve.com

Peter Tupper
"Koenigsberg's Model"

Peter Tupper is a journalist and writer in Vancouver, BC. He studied history at University of British Columbia and journalism at Langara College. His publications include "The Innocent's Progress and Other Stories", a collection of steampunk erotica stories published by Circlet Press, and "21st Century Neo-Gothic" in "Inside Joss' Dollhouse", published by Benbella Smartpop. He's also the co-founder of Metro Vancouver Kink, a non-profit BDSM community organization.
