Mixtapes

The Mixtape (Special Edition) is a collection of seven short horror stories by Kenya Moss-Dyme. Dead to Me – In an upscale neighborhood, a woman wages a lonely battle against the undead Groundhog – A pair of cheaters attempt to rid themselves of their problem with unexpected results Cornflower Farms – A game of Ding Dong Ditch forever changes the lives of three childhood friends Peanut Butter Kisses – A mother takes unparalleled steps to prove her love for her son The Spelling Bee – An alien plays a game of cat and mouse with the hunter sent for its capture Patchwork – A healing gift is also a tool of vengeance for a jilted wife Roar – Road kill is the order of the day for an outcast in a small town As a child, I realized that my entertainment choices leaned more toward ghosts and goblins than princesses and fairy godmothers. My favorite authors were Stephen King and Jack Ketchum, as I wasn't aware of any bIack women - or black men - who wrote horror, so I began writing short-form horror in my teens. I didn't release my first book until many decades later, thanks to the advances of self-publishing. Although I may occasionally drop a work of romance, my real passion is weaving stories about monsters – both the kind that come from the pits of hell or the kind that may live right next door.

The Mixtape, Vol. 2 is the newest collection of short stories and flash fiction from Kenya Moss-Dyme. Similar to Vol. I, published in 2017, four of these stories were originally published in other anthologies but two of them are brand new for this volume.
