QUALIA NOUS … coming soon!
Editor Michael Bailey has begun the editing and typesetting of QUALIA NOUS, the forthcoming sci-fi/horror anthology from Written Backwards featuring a short story from Stephen King, and he says that with some good fortune, the book may be ready before the end of the summer.
Here’s a look at the wraparound jacket with a list of all the contributing authors, starting with King…
Michael Bailey also created the cover art.
