    Sixteen stories. Sixteen body parts. One writer murdered to get them. 
    Rain Corbyn's Body of Work collects Corbyn's eight best stories already in print with eight never-before-read nasties, all organized by anatomy. 
    Brad will go insane unless his body is completely hair-free. Prince Alastair looks for his Cinderella, but he carries her foot skin instead of a slipper. Poppy will stop at nothing to become the number one pimple popping social media star. A weight loss cult holds darker secrets than its abusive leader. And it gets worse. 
    These tales are framed by a shocking meta-narrative about online identity, parasocial relationships, and remorseless deception. What Jaws did for beaches, Body of Work will do for your DMs. 
    For fans of gross-out body horror, bad queer representation, extreme horror, splatterpunk, and ecological Sci-fi. A collection in the transgressive, respectability-eschewing traditions of Clive Barker, William S. Burroughs, Eric LaRocca, Gretchen Felker-Martin, and Joe Koch.

    Widdershins (Version 2)

    Onions wrote several collections of ghost stories, of which the best known is Widdershins (1911). It includes the novella The Beckoning Fair One, widely regarded as one of the best in the genre of horror fiction, especially psychological horror. On the surface, this is a conventional haunted house story: an unsuccessful writer moves into rooms in an otherwise empty house, in the hope that isolation will help his failing creativity. His sensitivity and imagination are enhanced by his seclusion, but his art, his only friend and his sanity are all destroyed in the process. The story can be read as narrating the gradual possession of the protagonist by a mysterious and possessive feminine spirit, or as a realistic description of a psychotic outbreak culminating in catatonia and murder, told from the sufferer's point of view. The precise description of the slow disintegration of the protagonist's mind is terrifying in either case.  
    Another theme, shared with others of Onions' stories, is a connection between creativity and insanity; in this view, the artist is in danger of withdrawing from the world altogether and losing himself in his creation. (Introduction from Wikipedia)
