THE BLACK CANDIES SERIES
Black Candies is SSWA’s journal of literary horror with a commitment to diverse voices. Black Candies is a place where “genre” is not a dirty word. It’s a place where respectable and serious writers can indulge their darkest and weirdest tendencies. It’s a platform for authors to create intelligent terror. Black Candies: A Journal of Literary Horror wants to unsettle you. We have several anthologies available; check them out here.
The fascinating and wildly varied themes include stories of darkness, humor, action, introspection, and elegant horror -- always unexpected, and always memorable.
Certain stories from Black Candies now comprise a series of full-fledged radio plays, commissioned by The La Jolla Playhouse as part of their 2020 Digital Without Walls Series! Find them here, and look for more episodes in February 2021.
THE INCOMING SERIES
Incoming is a series of publications (and live storytelling performances, and radio / podcast programming) that provides a forum for veterans, veteran families, and foreign nationals who’ve worked with the US military to tell their own stories, in their own words. We solicit non-fiction and poetry inter/nationally, while drawing heavily upon work from our own Veteran Writers Division. Every book you buy helps So Say We All provide veteran writer workshops, masterclasses, additional episodes of the Incoming NPR/ PRX public radio program, and more books.
Thank you for helping us serve those who’ve served!
We have two beautiful, unforgettable Incoming anthologies -- have a look here:
SSWA is wrapping up a successful series of online Masterclasses for Veterans this month. Be on the lookout for works from the students in 2021, on the Incoming podcast!
