Last Christmas: A Holiday Horror Anthology

This blog is a little late. But I just wanted to quick say:

Last Christmas: A Holiday Horror Anthology featuring the story, "Traditions Tangled in Tinsel," by me, Matthew Jon Smith, from Dark Moon Rising Publications, edited by the illustrious Rob Tannahill, is out NOW.

The cover of Last Christmas: A Holiday Horror Anthology which features blood splatter on what appears to be blue and white snow themed patchwork
There was a brief moment where it was almost in a top 100 list.
I am really stoked to half been a part of this project and I would love if you went and checked it out! The e-book is only $2.99.

You can get it at Godless or that other retailer that is so huge I don't need to use their name.

If he hadn’t been on a dead, backroad highway somewhere between Barrenview and the main freeway, with no cars in sight? Not a chance. He never would have slammed on his brakes for some shit raccoon too stupid not to run when it saw headlights, not if the  last time  had gone better. He never would have stopped if not for the fact that the very second before he hit the poor animal, he just remembered he...

  3/16/2025 9:44 AM CST Dear Reader, I know you missed me last Sunday. You probably did not know what to do with yourself when I left you without the healing power of my golden words for more than a week. I would apologize for leaving you so weak, but I would like to restate my former informal promise: I am only committing to three blogs a month. Furthermore, I must emphasize that this stated promise is informal , as it is a soft commitment on my part. Ok, for real though, I can only commit to 3 blogs a month right now, and as we get into this week’s subject, maybe you will understand why. No, this week, you will not be getting the INLAND EMPIRE analysis essay, nor will you be getting the “Street Fighter and the Art of Craft” essay. I know it probably seems like a running joke by now, but maybe this week’s topic will clear that up too. Today, we are going to talk about what the hell I have been up to for the last three months and what you can expect to see from me in the y...
