Time moves on. The hands of the clock never stop – not even when the battery runs out or fate wills us to forget. It is in the inevitable forward motion of time that we learn and try to remember. But what happens when we go back? Are the lessons taught or events that transpire forever altered? What changes? What repeats? What ends and what begins? Join us as we bend time in this multi-genre anthology in an attempt to unwind the very hands of time…
A creative ninja with a dark mind and a quirky nature, Stephanie Ayers writes all the words and spins twisted tales filled with horror, fantasy, suspense, and anything in between. With a trunk full of tricks thanks to a checkered past, she haunts Irish castles and snowy mountaintops in her dreams while living the unicorn life in Ohio disguised as a human. When she isn’t listening to the voices in her head, she spends her days as a mom, Gigi, cat lover, and Netflix binger, while avoiding housework at all costs.
Her debut novella, Til Death Do Us Part, was published in 2013, and her work appears in several anthologies and collections. Along with many solo works, she currently has two serials to her name, the stand-alone horror volumes of The 13 series, and her epic 5 book fantasy series, Destiny Defined.

Her favorite quote is: "The blank page is a canvas on which the writer paints a story."-Stephanie Ayers
Last Man Standing - This was a phenomenal story and a terrific start to this anthology. It did a great job of transporting the reader to a different time and place.
The Locket - This was an incredible story and possibly my favorite yet from Delude. It was so rich in history and emotion. The ending came as quite a surprise and was written to be so vivid that I could almost feel the heat myself. Well done!
The Probability Void - This story had a very intriguing beginning that hooked me into wanting to read more. I really enjoyed this story from start to finish.
Better Keep it Infamous - This story was unique and action-packed. It was a nice addition to the anthology and a quick, easy read.
The Time Mistress - The beginning certainly piqued my interest and made me want to know more about the gift and what Elaine would grow up to become.
In Loving Memory - This one was an utter delight to read. McCulloch's stories are always a terrific addition to any anthology.
Whispers in Time - This was an exciting story for this anthology to end with. Things got pretty dark and intense before letting the light back in.
I enjoyed each of these stories. Most of them based on time travel which piqued my interest even more. I can't say I have a favorite because they are all good in their own way.
