Produktbeschreibung
Paper & Kindling contains twelve short stories and four poems, each paired with a beautiful illustration. Inspired by each other, these tales explore from the heights of the stars to the darkest depths of the human mind and just about everything in between. A child learns of an inevitable guest, a blacksmith must forge an impossible key, an off-duty employee has an unwelcome interruption and forests cling to mountain sides that none will ever climb. A determined soul makes an otherworldly trip while an article of clothing accidentally changes hands and changes lives at the same time. Happiness comes more quickly when we can build it into ourselves and one author knows just how to get his story read. Then there's the medium who just wants to have a nice dinner with a nice girl without the other side crashing in for once and a Revolutionary soldier who hopes to raise a glass or two before the war is over. There's a blackness in the walls reaching out and sometimes the only way back is forward. It's hard to feel haunted where it's never dark; sometimes terror unfurls in broad daylight. What happens when someone pushes science too far or science pushes someone too far away? Follow the threads of inspiration that four authors used to weave their tales. After all, the end of one story is just the start of another.
Autorenporträt
Christine Ricketts has been writing for as long as she can remember and boy, are her hands tired. She also enjoys reading, playing video games and theoretical attempts at organization. On rare occasions she will do something involving that so-called "reality" people are always talking about. She doesn't really see the appeal. Nicole DeGennaro is a human being who exists. Sometimes. When she isn't toiling over the written word, she is often wasting time on the Internet or annoying her cats. She also takes on way too many projects for her own good, but she enjoys all of them. You can learn more about all that at her virtual Batcave: http: //nicoledegennaro.wordpress.com/. Kaitlyn Sudol is an aspiring children's author with a boring day job. She lives in the Boston area where she spends a lot of time having brunch and talking about horror movies, comic books, musical theatre, and kidlit. When she's not reading, writing, or brunching, she's probably recording an episode of The Worst Bestsellers or mindlessly refreshing the internet. You can hear her complain about the MBTA at @fourteenacross on Twitter or hear her talk about literature of questionable quality at www.worstbestsellers.com. Lara Eckner loves poetry, comics, and poetry about comics. You can find her work in Drawn to Marvel: Poems from the Comic Books and Strange Romance Volume 2. She talks about all manner of media and feelings on twitter as @LaraEckener.
