Dark Horses: The Magazine of Weird Fiction No. 53, June 2026 – Hobb’s End Press!

Some of you might remember a couple of months back I had a time-traveling western tale featured in a genre publication on Amazon. That magazine made it to the number one spot overnight (Mobius Blvd). Well, my story The Missouri Man is back! It’s been reprinted in the current issue of Dark Horses Magazine. From Hobb’s End Press. It is edited and compiled by Wayne Kyle Spitzer. The tale is about a lawyer who one day finds a hole in back of his refrigerator. And that hole is a time tunnel, leading back to a frontier era in which he must become an unlikely hero. I’ll leave the usual pics and links below. Check it out in case you missed it the first time around. The June issue is a whopping 352 pages! It is available in print or Kindle formats.
