    John F.D. Taff, Anthony Rivera

    eBook (Grey Matter Press, Sept. 18, 2018)
    HUMANITY IS TARNISHED.First he gave us Little Deaths: The Definitive Edition. Then he unleashed his unique brand of pain in The End in All Beginnings. Now Bram Stoker Award-nominated John F.D. Taff – modern horror’s King of Pain – returns with Little Black Spots. Fifteen stories of dark horror fiction gathered together for the first time, exposing the delicate blemishes and sinister blots that tarnish the human condition.-- A man stumbles on a cult that glorifies spontaneous human combustion...-- A disgraced nature photographer applies his skills for a vile outcome...-- A darkened city parking structure becomes dangerously and malevolently alive...-- An innocent Halloween costume has a husband seeing his wife in a disturbing new light...-- A ruined man sees far too much of himself in his broken family...-- A young boy finds a mysterious bottle of liquid containing a deadly secret...-- And so much more.Little Black Spots is a beacon shining its light into some of life's most shadowy corners, revealing the dark stains that spatter all mankind.Praise for John F.D. Taff:“Of the current breed of authors riding the wave of digital liberation, John Taff is a standout talent. Literary, affecting, chilling, and indicative of that old-school mentality meets new-school daring.” – Kealan Patrick Burke, Bram Stoker Award®-winning author of The Turtle Boy, Kin and Jack & Jill“John F. D. Taff has rapidly become one of my favorite writers in the horror genre. His horror is grounded in our day-to-day lives, in our families, our work, our most private thoughts. His stories vibrate with emotion and life and his prose is cathartic, deeply satisfying, like popping the bubbles in bubble wrap.” – Ray Garton, Grand Master of Horror and author of Live Girls and RavenousProudly presented by Grey Matter Press, the multiple Bram Stoker Award-nominated independent publisher.Grey Matter Press: Where Dark Thoughts Thrive

    eBook (Digireads.com, Aug. 7, 2018)
    The Story of Little Black Sambo is a children's book written and illustrated by Scottish author Helen Bannerman, and published by Grant Richards in October 1899 as one in a series of small-format books called The Dumpy Books for Children. The story was a children's favourite for more than half a century.Critics of the time observed that Bannerman presents one of the first black heroes in children's literature and regarded the book as positively portraying black characters in both the text and pictures, especially in comparison to the more negative books of that era that depicted blacks as simple and uncivilised. However, it would become an object of allegations of racism in the mid-20th century, due to the names of the characters being racial slurs for African Americans, and the fact the illustrations were in the, as Langston Hughes put it, pickaninny style. Both text and illustrations have undergone considerable revisions since.
