What I'm working on: current WIP

Hey everyone!

Today I'll give you an incentive to check out my webpage (www.jasmingelinck.com) more often!

Why should you do it? Because there is soon to be a new story (collection)! At the moment I'm working on an anthology of short stories (among other things) called Xenos. Xenos means strange - and boy are those stories strange (and some of them are horrific)!

In the anthology there will be six stories all centered around one of these topics:

aliens
first contact
weird as heck science experiments
aliens
cosmic horror
aliens

The stories in the anthology will contain old(er) stories as well as brand-new stories! A story that's been on Amazon for a while and is doing well on its own is 2115. This is about a band of people trying to survive the first phase after the aliens landed and their city (Detroit btw) was destroyed. All I can tell you is they're getting outta town real quick! Here's the official blurb:

2115

In the year 2115, aliens landed on Earth. A worn-out soldier, an obliv-addicted EMT, and a little girl take a group of survivors out of the destroyed city to establish a survivors' shelter in an old highway tunnel.

The other stories included in the anthology are:

Moonfarer (a weird Solaris-esque story)
Of One Mind (weird as heck science experiments mentioned above ft. the connection of human minds - alert! Horror!)
Eye in the Sky
Gate (< this one needs a different title yet. It's not complete and not 'done' either at this point)
Immortal (I sent this story off to some magazines and got really good feedback... even though they didn't take it Q_Q)

If you like Lovecraft you might like this anthology. If you like weird as heck cosmic horror/existential horror then you will love this anthology. I know I do (and not just because I'm biased!). I'm actually getting to the point where I write the things that actually TOUCH ME in some way or other. And they're all weird as heck. Please don't tell my therapist.

The anthology will be out on the 7th of December! (A day before my birthday incidentally! What a coincidence!)

Anyway! Stay tuned, sing in tune, check out my website now and then again tomorrow and the day after that, and so on and so forth. There should be an update on Xenos soon. The cover is done. A sneak peek? Hmmm! Soon. I promise.

Have a good day/night!
