My Four Star Review on the Goodreads website . . . . .
I ordered this magazine because it's Crystal Lake Publishing's first endeavor into magazines, and I wanted to support those efforts. I'm a fan of their imprint. Crystal Lake has introduced me to many excellent writers in the horror and dark fantasy genres.
Memento Mori Ink magazine is a rebranding of House of Stitched Magazine, formerly published by Stitched Smile Publications (an indie publisher I need to check out).
This is a fascinating non-fiction magazine (except for some flash fiction) that is "aimed at elevating the voices of indie artists across various mediums."
There are many diverse and interesting articles in the debut issue that make it worth investigating for horror fans looking for some less-recognized creators to support: book and game reviews, a fictionalized "interview" with Primal (the burly cosplayer featured on the cover), columns on writing, a moving memoir by an indie writer, a feature on a dark fashion designer, a profile of a paranormal investigator, some author spotlights, and a music review.
Well done, and engaging reading.
