Autumn Cider 2023's Harvest is about Transforming into the Unknown

As part of Undawnted's seasonal reads programming series, the Hero's Journey is traced through the quarters.

For Autumn Cider, the path leads us to transformation. We are led from the comfortable, mortal world and into the precarious, supernatural realm. What we know becomes the unknown. In this newfound reality, we venture into the underworld for our final challenge that gives us the elixir to set the wrongs right again. 

 

What will you learn on this quest? Who will you become? Transform into the person you can be by discovering the hero within with Undawnted. 

Enjoy our stories from poetry to prose, such as:

• In the Name of Blood: Vampires are Relative
• The Story of Ophlupin 
• The Descent: a darker breed of poetry  
• Habitué 
• Baptizing the Dead  
• Wild West and the Pueblo Diablo 

You are invited on this journey with us. 

Join Undawnted this season as we walk with the ancestors beyond the veil.

Working on Dark Poetry Chapbook

Halloween is less than five months away.

Good thing, I began putting together a dark poetry chapbook then... This ebook will publish some fan favorites as well as new poetry that our readers have not seen yet.

This chapbook is called The Descent. Here's our workup on the Chapbooks page in the Poetry section of Undawnted:

This chapbook houses "a darker breed of poetry." Just in time for Halloween! Fan favorites like The Collection, Death Replies to Emily Dickinson, and Breathe will make their presence known. Plus new poetry that has yet to be seen by the general public.

So get out your Ouija boards; it's time to divinate great poetry!

We cannot wait for the September 16th debut! 

 

Tribute to Prince

With our visual, digital society artists and musicians have an opportunity to capture our imagination. Prince was one of the very few that not only enticed us, he had the talents to back up his abilities. 

He wrote music for himself and others. He used his star power to support and expose new female artists to a larger stage. He was a community man, always giving back. 

So thank you for the memories, Prince.

I grew up with your music and I am grateful for it. You had a unique view of the world. Not many artists can paint the world purple, but you did. 

Have a nice rest and I will see you, when I see you. 

Glenn Frye

I was out ill when I heard the news of Glenn Frye's passing. 

The one song I have always loved that Glenn Frye wrote and sang was Desperado. So here's to you: 

I hope you and David Bowie are having one epic jam session.
