With today’s Editor Pick we move from the swamp to seamstress with Revenge Dress, a poignant quiet horror tale by Susan J. Lin where existential threads spiral downward to an inevitable end. Read it here for free: www.gavagai.com
Cover for the story "Revenge Dress" by Susan J. Lin. It shows the title of thew work and the author name along with other metadata and an artistically framed background of a woman wearing a dress from just below the shoulders to above the waist. The arms are crossed in a way that is difficult to interpret.
