Here at Goblins & Galaxies, we love a good bug story, if you can't tell from Timaeus Bloom's "Bugmen and Proud of It." We also love the classic Warren magazines like Eerie. If you thought you could escape the alien terrors, I'm afraid I have bad news.

A large, two-story Southern plantation-style mansion engulfed in flames, with fire consuming the upper floors and thick black smoke billowing into the sky. The mansion features tall white columns and a grand staircase at the entrance. In the foreground, several firefighters in yellow helmets and protective gear work to manage hoses and battle the blaze, while a white fence separates them from the burning structure. The scene is chaotic and dramatic, with intense fire and smoke dominating the image.

🧡The largest plantation in the South burned down this week.
And the way white folksβ€”especially wedding vendorsβ€”are mourning β€œmemories” and β€œbrides who won’t get to have their special day there”?

It’s giving cognitive dissonance.

Because let’s be real...

So... big news. The Shirley Jackson submission call has been so overwhelmingly excellent that our editor, Jolie Toomajan, decided that there was no way we could cut this down into a single issue.

Expect a new anthology from us sometime next spring!
