Cover for Dark Recesses Press #8

"You've come about the monster, I suppose," said The Woman Who Eats Only Bones.

Neth nodded. "For a long time, we thought it was a wild animal. But every hunter who has ever gone after it has died. Now it has taken a child."

Anne Harris' short story, "The Bear Child," is out in the current issue (#8) of Dark Recesses Press, a free, online publication. It is about a young woman who becomes lost in the woods at night and discovers that the most dangerous monsters are the secrets we keep from ourselves.

Anne Harris' short story, "Still Life with Boobs," was a 2005 Nebula Award finalist published in Talebones Magazine and reprinted in Year's Best Fantasy 6. Her first novel, The Nature of Smoke, is in translation in Japan under the title Fractal Goddess, where it made the short list for the Sense of Gender Award. Harris' second novel, Accidental Creatures, won the Spectrum Award for science fiction with glbt characters, themes and issues. Her third, Inventing Memory, was a Booksense 76 pick. Harris is an adjunct professor in the Seton Hill University Master of Arts program in Writing Popular Fiction.
