Not sure which is cooler, that FIVE stories from Dark Peninsula Press's VIOLENT VIXENS anthology (edited by, well, the clearly great-at-editing-anthologies Aric Sundquist) made Ellen Datlow's long list for Best Horror of 2022 or that Datlow not only read one of my odd stories but also apparently liked it.
The VIOLENT VIXENS stories that made the cut include:
Matt Neil Hill, THE PARTS THAT HURT ME THE MOST
Gwendolyn Kiste, SISTER GLITTER BLOOD
Sarah Read, BLOOD BON SECOURS (a personal fave of mine)
Buck Weiss, THE DRESSMAKER
Mark Wheaton, KILLER OF HOGS
KILLER OF HOGS concerns a livestock veterinarian from rural Arkansas who, after discovering that the murderer of both her sister and mother is genetically linked to a single, Brooklyn-based crime family, heads to New York to kill the entire clan in revenge.
You can check out the long, looooong list here which likely includes several of y'er faves:
