Hate is slick and dark and occupies a thousand forms...  Hate might bind people together in an unholy bargain, or take treachery from a prison to a glittering, decadent city. Hate will lure friends to betrayal, families to grief, and make evil men seek poignant and deadly retribution. It nibbles at the fabric of society, disguises itself in tailored clothes and violence, and slinks into the magical world of poetry and education. Hate is timeless, from the from the old West to the modern world of law enforcement...and it shows little mercy. Come join ten authors who explore this unholy world and and give you a glimpse of the meaning of hate.

Laura Marie is happy to announce that WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS STAYS IN VEGAS, an 8,000 word short story, has been accepted by Whiskey Creek Press. It will be published in an anthology entitled HATE along with a few other hand-selected authors. The HATE anthology will be available August 2006 through Whiskey Creek Press.
