Exclusive Interview: “Greye La Spina: Fettered And Other Tales Of Terror” Editor Michael W. Phillips, Jr.

 

In the first half of the 1900s, writer Greye La Spina (1880 – 1969) was a regular fixture in such pulp magazines as Weird Tales. But while she fell into obscurity after she stopped writing, Greye is having something of a renaissance of late. Not only have her stories been reprinted in some recent anthologies, and a new version of her novel Invaders From The Dark published by Mint Editions, but a handful of her early stories have just been collected as Fettered And Other Tales Of Terror (paperback, Kindle). In the following email interview, Terror editor Michael W. Phillips, Jr. talks about how this collection came together, and what he hopes comes of it.
