GOOOOOD MORNING, SUNSHINE!!! 🌞

We’re now just... ONE. DAY. AWAY.

Tomorrow, the world meets The Woman The World Forgot---and I couldn’t be more grateful, nervous, and thrilled all at once.

The Woman the World Forgot (and Other Tales) is a brooding and unsettling collection of short fiction that explores the breathtaking beauty and brutality hiding just beneath the surface.

From a lone man struggling to survive during an apocalyptic plague that drives the afflicted toward savage, unrelenting violence, to a priest tormented by more than just lost faith --- from a couple with bloody secrets in their health food store, to a woman who finds her identity and memories have suddenly evaporated Into the ether --- these stories pull you into the strange, the eerie, the uncanny, and the darkly atmospheric.

With vividly constructed, immersive worlds, this collection doesn’t ask if the darkness is real. It asks how long we can pretend it isn’t.

So today?
Let’s stretch, sip something strong, and breathe in this last quiet morning before the storm.

Because tomorrow…
We launch.
We turn the first page.
We tremble with awe and fear...

With the greatest gratitude and love,

Angel Rosa

CHECK IT OUT: In the spirit of Edgar Allen Poe and H.P. Lovecraft, hear a short audio snippet from Entry One of my creepy short story, "For Those Of Us Not Prone". Read by yours truly, with a temp. soundtrack by Lucas King on Youtube.

While journeying by sea from Glasgow to the American port of New Orleans, Eryk Prather Von Boven, a wealthy descendant of European aristocracy, meets and falls in love with the young and beautiful, if somewhat awkward, Clara Balasquide DeSalles. Unfolding over a series of ten secret journal entries, "For Those Of Us Not Prone" is a short but eerie tale of romance and madness set at the turn of the 19th century.
