Announcing The New Bedlam Project<\/center><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

It is with great pleasure we announce the opening of a new and relatively unique speculative fiction webzine – The New Bedlam Project.<\/p>\n

Some years ago, a small flicker of light lit the window of an abandoned home in the small town of New Bedlam. A solitary figure waited by the candle, while three fellow survivors took their seats around a battered oak table. When they were all as comfortable as they could be, considering the circumstances under which they met, she began to speak.<\/i><\/p>\n

That meeting began a chain of events that has led us back to New Bedlam, back to the insanity and the insomnia. In early 2006, Louise Bohmer and I discussed what goes on in the depths of a writer’s mind when they are afflicted – perhaps blessed<\/i> – with insomnia. Within days I had outlined a proposal for an anthology set in the nearly-fictional town of New Bedlam, and by the end of the year the wheels had been set in motion.<\/p>\n

While the time that passed has brought some changes to the bigger picture, the idea of developing the town itself stuck with me. I wrote the beginnings of two novels set in and around New Bedlam. I’ve become close personal friends with the madness that lies within those darkened corners and hidden shadows. As I like to tell my children – I’ve stepped through my grandmother’s mirror once again.<\/p>\n

Why don’t you follow along, and see where the darkness takes us?<\/p>\n
