About this ebook

Joe Moe is a writer, entertainer and horror host, privileged to have been considered best friend and caretaker to the late, great, Forrest J Ackerman, founding fearfather of Sci-Fi, Fantasy and Horror fandom. Following in “Uncle Forry’s” clawprints, Joe partnered with pals Bill Philputt, Days of the Dead Horror convention promotor, and Nicholas Grabowsky, publisher of Black Bed Sheet Books, to create an ongoing series of anthologies to promote literacy and creativity in fandom. Joe Moe believes we’re responsible to find our voice and then obligated to share it with the world! Reading horror engages our deepest imagination. Writing horror requires our furthest flights of fantasy. From the 1930s until his death in 2008, Uncle Forry believed that a world full of imagination was a world where no problem must remain unsolved. A world where we learn about each other by sharing our stories. We hope you’ll be inspired by the experienced authors and the fledgling writers found in this book. We hope you’ll be inspired to see yourself in print in one of our upcoming editions. Until then, may the Forrest be with you!
