“Poppy’s Poppy” nominated for a Bram Stoker Award this year (!)

Thanks to all the wonderful folks who read my dark tale of sibling rivalry and family history. It was an honor and a trip to have “Poppy’s Poppy” nominated for a Stoker, and a real pleasure to spend time with friends and readers at StokerCon ’23, here in Pittsburgh.

Here’s my bio, as it now appears on the official Bram Stoker Award site:
BIO: Douglas Gwilym has been known to compose a weird-fiction rock opera or two. His short story “Year Six” is on Ellen Datlow’s recommended reading list for Best Horror 14. He edited Triangulation for four years and now co-edits The Midnight Zone—forthcoming edition, Novus Monstrum, a collection of never-before-seen monsters, featuring original stories by greats, and new voices, in strange, dark fiction. He reads classics of the proto-Weird on YouTube and has been guest staff at Alpha Young Writers workshop.
