Hekate and Diana. Odin and Apollo. Freyja and the Witch-Lord. Eternal Haunted Summer was born in the late summer of 2009. It was created as a place where Pagans and polytheists and witches (and non-Pagans with a love of the old myths) could feature their short stories and poems and essays with those of a like mind and similar beliefs and practices. EHS has grown steadily over the years, due entirely to the wonderful contributors whose works fill its digital pages. Without their creativity and talent, EHS would not exist; it would have disappeared long ago. This thirteenth anniversary edition is a celebration of their work. I love every piece that appears in Eternal Haunted Summer, and I just wish that I could have included them all here. These poems, essays, and short stories range from tragic to triumphant, from exciting to despairing, from comic to horrific, from grotesque to sensual, from erotic to subtle; here you will find odes to terrible Gods, exciting tales of adventure, melancholy meditations on creation, and wonderings at the nature of human and divine hearts. These are the best of Eternal Haunted Summer. I hope that you find them as inspiring as I do.

For the fourth installment of Rhonda Parrish's Alphabet Anthologies, contributors were challenged to write about dinosaurs. The resulting twenty-six stories contain widely different interpretations of the dinosaur theme and span the spectrum from literal to metaphoric.Within these stories -- set in alternative histories, far-flung futures and times just around the corner -- dinosaurs whimper and waste away or roar and rage. People can be dinosaurs, as can ideas, fictions and flesh. Knitted dinosaurs share space with ghostly, genetically engineered and even narcotic ones.Teenagers must embrace their inner dinosaurs in order to find peace and belonging, a dying woman duels a God in a far future city that echoes aspects of our past, an abused wife accompanies her husband on a hunt for an ancient power and finds more than she could ever have imagined, a girl with wonderful magical powers stumbles across the bones of a giant long-dead lizard and so much more!

In Ireland, the frightening leannán sídhe suck the life from artists and poets in exchange for muse-like inspiration. Japanese nikusui are known for their troublesome habit of blowing out the flames of lanterns--as well as consuming the flesh of human men. From the domovoy of Russia to the vampiric, bird-like bruxa of Portugal, from Malaysia's hantu tetek to English brownies and the tomte of Sweden, the world is full of mystical creatures who, the authors of Fairylore argue, are part of the world of the fae. In this beautifully illustrated encyclopedia, Drs. Brittany Warman and Sara Cleto, founders of the Carterhaugh School of Folklore and the Fantastic, explore the myths and history behind these awe-inspiring, sometimes-frightening, always alluring beings. By emphasizing the connection between fae folk in every culture and throughout time, they uncover the ways in which storytellers have seen magic animate the unexplained for millennia. Sections dedicated to fairies of the home, of nature, of love and romance, and more emphasize the variety of fairies, each bookended by a classic piece of lore broken down by the authors' expert analysis. This is a enchanting and fascinating reference for any reader who has ever wanted to learn more about the stories behind the beings that animate their favorite novels, movies, and games.
