 Ginger Snaps: Mini Interviews with Bite! Ginger Snaps is a brand new segment for Ginger Nuts of Horror. It is a quick-fire “bite-sized” interview, where your answers relate to what you’ve been doing in the past month (30 days or so). Keep your answers short and sweet, but also add your own flair where you can. Please include a brief bio, a photo that we can use, and any links that you would like us to add to the interview. Tell us: Who are you? My name is Joshua Rex. I’m an author of speculative fiction and historical nonfiction. Your signature style: I write literary horror. The primary themes of my fiction are memory and the inescapability of Time. My historical research/writing deals primarily with the American Victorian era. Toot your own horn: I’ve worked as a luthier. I can cross stitch (poorly). I can “eat and drink” in the Thai language. Books read: Currently: Famous Men Who Never Lived by K Chess; The Chronicles of Stephen Foster’s Family (Vols. 1&2) by Evelyn Morneweck Movies watched: The Basil Rathbone Sherlock Holmes—on repeat. Games and/or music played: Currently: Vertigo by French harpsichordist Jean Rondeau; and lots of Fleetwood Mac. Words written: My new collection What’s Coming for You: Stories is available now at Amazon. Future stuff: My novel A Mighty Word, which involves a city poisoned by the runoff from an anti-depressant factory and the “civilized undead” the chemical awakens, will be released in the spring of 2020 from Rotary Press. Brain worms: I’m guessing this means what’s been in my head the past several weeks? If so: White Sands, NM; cholla cacti; Fraiser; N/A gimlets; Currier & Ives prints.  Bio Joshua Rex is an author of speculative fiction and historical nonfiction. His horror collection What’s Coming for You was released in August, 2020. He lives in El Paso, Texas.

A psychometress resurrects a rapacious fiend, and a psychologist counsels an eerily familiar patient. A man returning home to bury his father is forced to exhume a horrid secret, and a bullied adolescent’s game-winning shot is not only a team victory but a bloody and visceral personal triumph. Uniting these doomed is the unequivocal certainty that what is coming is coming for us all. Includes: The Leap. Breakout Season. The Unfinished Room. What’s Coming for You. A Mother’s Museum. Coattails. The Whispering Wheel. The Reveal. In Situ. A Voice Below.   Comments are closed.
