Darkness: Two Decades of Modern Horror

[ellen_datlow]

Here is the TOC and the tentative jacket --please note that the names on the front of the jacket are not final. There will be more/others. Not sure about the back cover, but we may put all the names there. I'm also assuming the snake will show up more than it does here. The book will be out from Tachyon February 2010.

It's not so bad. Don't forget anthologist is my full time job--so it's not as stressful as when I was working at SCIFICTION full time and editing anthologies on the side.

That's right. I guess it's not as stressful when it's something you love and you're doing well at it! :)
