WIHM 2022: An Interview With Editor Rebecca Rowland

In celebration of Women in Horror Month, we are continuing to highlight some of the amazing work that women have been doing compiling and editing magazines and story collections in the horror industry. We’re continuing our Women Who Edit Interview series with Rebecca Rowland.

Could you introduce yourself, and tell us a little about you?

Hi! My name is Rebecca Rowland, and I write and curate dark fiction. By day, I teach high school English in a large, urban district, and I really like my students. I like to think of my role as an author/ghostwriter/editor as my superhero identity: it’s not something I necessarily promote in my day life, but people seem intrigued (slash, surprised) when they do learn of it.

Title: Generation X-Ed
Author: Various, ed. Rebecca Rowland
Genre: Horror
Publisher: Dark Ink Books
Release Date: 26th January, 2022

Synopsis: Bestselling editor Rebecca Rowland (Unburied: A Collection of Queer Dark Fiction) and Dark Ink Books (SaviniUnmasked: The True Life Story of the World’s Most Prolific Cinematic Killer) present a unique anthology of monster, folk, paranormal, and psychological horror as glimpsed through the lens of the latchkey generation. In this assortment of spine-chilling tales, twenty-two voices shine a strobe light on the cultural demons that lurked in the background while they came of age in the heyday of Satanic panic and slasher flicks, milk carton missing and music television, video rentals and riot grrrls.

These Gen-X storytellers once stayed out unsupervised until the streetlights came on, and what they brought home with them will terrify you.

Featuring brand new fiction from Kevin David Anderson, Glynn Owen Barrass, Matthew Barron, C.D. Brown, Matthew Chabin, L.E. Daniels, C.O. Davidson, Douglas Ford, Phil Ford, Holly Rae Garcia, Dale W. Glaser, Tim Jeffreys, Derek Austin Johnson, Eldon Litchfield, Adrian Ludens, Elaine Pascale, Erica Ruppert, Kristi Petersen Schoonover, Rob Smales, Mark Towse, Thomas Vaughn, and Thomas K.S. Wake.
