Yeah, I know I have a story in here (published under the name Tyler Davis), but this isn't a review of that piece of work but as always that may make me a tad bias, so take that as you will. Instead, I wanted to highlight my peers work, and while I didn't love it all, there was still a ton to love here.
This installment of the Schlock! Anthology series celebrates their ten year anniversary and because of that it contains a slew of different works from a boxing fantasy, to splatterpunk horror. My personal favorite story in this collection is Megafauna, and is worth the $7 physical price tag alone in my opinion. The collection is some solid fun, and brings back memories of reading the old Pulp mags that would vary there stories between pretentious nonsense that I love so much and genre fun. Schlock! functions the same way, with a story in here for everyone.
Now a word on my work, Jimmy:
I originally wrote a much shorter version of Jimmy in the 3rd grade, which goes to show how stories even when you think they're done, never are. It's a serial killer tale, that I began re-writing during a depressive stint in the late summer of 2020, taking inspiration from my at the time obsession with Resident Evil: biohazard. I love it very much, but boy do I hate it as well. Since August 2020, the way I write stories and how I write them have completely changed, and reading it back I found myself both extremely happy but also feeling a extreme want to edit it all over again. That isn't to say Jimmy is something I no longer care for, it's quite the opposite. The story is one I cannot wait to revisit down the future and I am more than proud of its existence, and am ever thankful for the editors at Schlock! for taking a chance on it.
