The second story is titled “Piano Man,” and is scheduled for appearance in the March 2021 issue of Love Letters to Poe. Sara Crocoll Smith, the publisher and editor-in-chief, initially had concerns about this story, but graciously gave me the opportunity to improve it, for which I am supremely grateful.
Love Letters to Poe is a monthly gothic fiction magazine that will launch in October 2020. Within its pages, you’ll discover a convergence of wonder and terror, romance and horror.
For those who love daring damsels exploring the dark recesses of a haunted manor by candlelight, enjoy a thick fog rolling in on a gloomy hillside under a full moon, and the titillating torment of the sublime, come on in, enjoy a nice cup of tea by the fire, and crack open a lovely little gothic tale.
