A huge thank you to everyone who submitted a story to Dark Highways! This was a very interesting submission theme, and I received a ton of outstanding stories. There were 220 submissions total, featuring plenty of highway-themed mischief, ghostly hitchhikers, marauding serial killers, possessed vehicles, and mutant babies preying on hitchhikers. The stories were a joy to read!

Out of the submission pool, seven stories were chosen to appear in issue #3. Those stories/authors are:

"S.A.L.E." by Darren Todd
"The Field Trip" by Matt Neil Hill
"Riders on the Storm" by Charlotte Vale
"Last Frequency" by Mary Rajotte
"Unwanted" by SR Miller
"Twelve Miles. Two Hours." by Scotty Milder
"Lights Out, Everything Off" by Christi Nogle

I will probably be adding a few more authors later this year. And as of now... all responses have been sent out. If you submitted a story and haven't heard back, please contact me personally through the CONTACT section of the Dark Peninsula website, or through email. Thank you!

Sincerely,

Aric Sundquist
