"ETCH THE UNTHINKABLE" by Kurt Fawver is the first of 15 stories in the collection, THE BEST OF GAMUT, which is set to release on January 1, 2024. This collection of stories were hand picked from those appearing in past issues of the GAMUT magazine, which is being relaunched under the House of Gamut umbrella - alongside a teaching academy & publishing branch. These stories are speculative, dark in nature and basically comes down to asking questions regarding the human experience. I am so excited to read through each of these stories & share them with you in the form of quotes, feelings or perhaps a question of my own.. #Horror #Gamut #HouseOfGamut #RichardThomas #Anthology #ShortStory #Fiction #ScienceFiction #SpeculativeFiction #Fantasy #KurtFawver #EtchTheUnthinkable #Clown
