SHE'S LOST CONTROL is an all-female horror and dark fiction & poetry anthology from Post Mortem Press.The pieces in this anthology deal with various themes: death, violence, love, rape, motherhood, childhood, family, failure, victory. The voices of women rise up, refusing to be quieted. A secretary is haunted by her boss's laughter. A young woman dreams of a lost little boy. A woman dances, and dances, and dances until little is left.One thing is certain, and it shows again and again throughout these works: She's lost control. And no one knows quite what will happen.INCLUDES WORKS FROM AWARD-WINNING AUTHORS CYNTHIA PELAYO, STEPHANIE M. WYTOVICH, AND LUCY A. SNYDERThis book, by its very nature, is doing important work: giving women writers a platform and prioritizing their voices over the cacophony of men that have dominated the field for so long. This is not meant to start an argument over whose voice is more important or stronger or holds more weight-this book is only meant to continue the conversation of why we need diverse mindsets and points of view in the literary community. And as the global conversation continues to both widen and deepen in regards to diversity and inclusion in all aspects of our lives, I hope we can maintain that dialogue. This is a good place to start. The pieces in this anthology deal with various themes: death, violence, love, rape, motherhood, childhood, family, failure, victory. They are all poignant, emotional, and important. They are all human. I am proud and grateful that these women have entrusted me with their words. I hope you read them and hear what they are saying-what they are screaming. The female voice is strong, and will not be controlled. - Elizabeth Jenike - editorFEATURING SHORT FICTION & POETRY FROMCHLOE MONET SUTCH, AMIRAH MOHIDDIN, L.L. MADRID, SYDNEY J.
