Thirst is the love child of Big Pulp, where romance meets fantasy…and science fiction and mystery and horror. You won’t find the typical romance fiction tropes here—no heaving bosoms or torn bodices, no wilting wallflowers waiting for love to complete them. Instead, you’ll meet characters driven by purpose, a need they must fill, a thirst they’ll do anything to slake.
Thirst is about desire of all kinds—for love, sex, fame, money, power, acceptance, beauty, and connection. Thirst is about passion, and obsession. It’s about hunger, jealousy, need. It’s about doing what you must to get what you want. It’s about heartache. It’s about lying and cheating, deception and betrayal, sin and redemption. And sometimes…yes, sometimes, it’s even about Love.
In this issue, you’ll meet a dancer who can have the love of any man except the one she desires, and another who must wait for her love to blossom. You’ll uncover a murder with a man who harbors a dark secret. You’ll meet a wizard willing to do anything to forget what he’s learned about love and a girl ready to unravel its mysteries.
This issue features stories and poems by Gerri Leen; Wayne Scheer; Chris Longhurst; Jennifer R. Povey; Gene Stewart; J.S. Watts; Mickey J. Corrigan; Nu Yang; K.B. Sluss; Charles Leggett; Bruce Golden; Terrie Leigh Relf; and Lyn Lifshin.
Indulge your thirst.
