The Big Three-O

The thirties issue of Supernatural Tales is heaving into view, or taking shape on the slipway, or being fuelled preparatory to lift-offs - feel free to use your own image. But it's definitely coming, and it's a special issue. I went out like an optimistic fool and asked a few of the writers who've contributed to ST over the last decade and a half to contribute.

As a result the Supernatural Tales 30 will contain a broad range of fiction from authors from all 'eras' of the magazine. So there's a story from Steve Duffy, who graced the very first issue, and the ST début from Mark Valentine which constitutes a tribute to the late Joel Lane, who was very supportive of ST in its early years. Expect further announcements in the next month or so as contents are finalised.

Oh, and there's a cracking bit of cover art from Sam Dawson that goes rather well with a story that features a mysterious room, a series of tragic events, and a family with the implausible name of Longhorn...
