My Short Story “The Skull-Faced Boy” Now Available on the Pseudopod Podcast

June 13, 2008 by David Barr Kirtley Leave a Comment

And remember to keep an eye out for “The Skull-Faced Boy” later this year in the Night Shade Books anthology The Living Dead (which will also feature stories by Stephen King, Neil Gaiman, George R. R. Martin, and many other well-known writers).
