Mark West's Mixtapes

For those of you interested in bite-sized, tantalizing introductions to great short fiction check out Mark West's Mixtape series over on his blog, Strange Tales. As Mark puts it, this project is 'harking back to the 80s glory days of the homemade mixtape (that wonderful teenage rite-of-passage.)'

Check out The Brit Horror Mixtape, The American Horror Mixtape, The Women In Horror Mixtape and The Stephen King Mixtape.

I've contributed to two of these, writing on Elizabeth Bowen's extraordinary and unsettling 'The Cat Jumps' for The Women In Horror Mixtape and on the delicate and haunting 'Strawberry Spring,' for The Stephen King Mixtape.
