Bailey Hunter: Publisher
A dreamer of the highest calibre, Bailey is a proud Canadian (so don’t tell her that ‘e’ comes before ‘r’ in words like calibre or theatre, or that cheque is misspelled) who has more irons in the fire than she has time to count.
The many facets of writing have always been a integral aspect to her life. She has always seen Dark Recesses Press as an idea born from a necessity to connect talented aspiring authors with quality starved horror/dark fiction enthusiasts.
She was a founding member of +The Horror Library+ and has either been in or worked on every anthology produced by them. In the off hours between full-time work, Mama Bear duties and publishing, Bailey also does book inset and cover lay-up design.
Bailey is also a social networking junkie and extreme coffee addict. She does not apologise for this.
She would tell you more but her basement is getting full and the stench is starting to attract attention.
Boyd E. Harris: Submissions Manager
Boyd E. Harris peddles ice cream by day and horror by night. He is the president of KaleidoScoops Inc., a retail ice cream chain with outlets in 20 states. When people ask, he explains that he doesn’t carry product around with him, because he hasn’t figured a way to keep it from melting.
After the sun goes down, Boyd is the Submissions Manager for Dark Recesses. He also participates as a copy editor and a staff writer for both Dark Recesses online magazine and the downloadable PDF.
Boyd is also the publisher of Cutting Block Press a small press publishing company that specializes in horror fiction anthologies. His book, +Horror Library+ Volume 3, was nominated for a 2009 Bram Stoker Award for best anthology. His company just released Butcher Shop Quartet II, an anthology he calls “Epic, Supernatural Horror”. He hopes to release +Horror Library+ Volume 4 in the first half of 2010.
Boyd is also on the development committee for the World Horror Convention 2011, which is to take place in Austin, Texas … Boyd’s home.

Connor Sanders, Lisa Brandel, David Hayes, Kara Mcelhinney, J.E. Taylor, Julie Andrijeski, Sean Grigsby, and Paula Phillips: Dark Recesses Reading Team.
These folks are our front line. The group has nearly two decades worth of combined experience as writers, editors and reviewers. They willingly read themselves to bloody eyeballs and that twitch that only the occasional murder can quell. I suggest you send Dark Recesses only your best work (they do have your contact information, after all).
