Dark Lit has eight of those adventures heading your way, written by some of today's most unique voices, all of whom are rising fast on the scene. The authors include Zach Rosenberg, Sylvester Barzey, Caitlin Marceau, Lor Gislason, Shelley LaVigne, Alyson Hasson, Christopher Robertson, Damien Casey, and William Sterling!

DARKLIT PRESS SETS SAIL ON KICKSTARTER WITH DARKLIT SAILS: A GROUNDBREAKING PIRATE HORROR ADVENTURE SERIES BY MARGINALIZED AUTHORS
DarkLit Press proudly announces the launch of their Kickstarter campaign for DarkLit Sails, an exhilarating series of pirate horror adventures written by underrepresented and marginalized authors. This daring voyage into the world of dark literature promises to captivate readers with spine-tingling tales of high-seas terror, all while championing diverse voices in the literary landscape.
Underrepresented and marginalized authors have long struggled to find their place in mainstream publishing, but DarkLit Sails aims to change that narrative. By providing a platform for these talented storytellers, DarkLit Press is committed to amplifying voices that have been historically overlooked in the industry.
"We believe that everyone deserves to see themselves reflected in the stories they read," says Andrew Robert, Founder and CEO of DarkLit Press. "With DarkLit Sails, we're not only offering thrilling adventures but also fostering inclusivity and representation in literature."
Each installment of DarkLit Sails will transport readers to the treacherous waters of pirate-infested seas, where danger lurks at every turn. From ancient curses to supernatural horrors, these tales promise to keep readers on the edge of their seats.
Adding to the allure of the campaign, DarkLit Sails will feature stunning cover illustrations by the acclaimed artist Val Halvorson, whose captivating artwork brings the chilling atmosphere of each story to life.
But the excitement doesn't end there! Backers of the Kickstarter campaign will enjoy a bounty of rewards, including discounted books from DarkLit Press's back catalogue and a treasure trove of free books. With rewards tailored to suit every budget, supporters will have the opportunity to dive into a sea of captivating stories while helping to bring DarkLit Sails to fruition.
"We're incredibly grateful for the support of our backers," says Andrew Robert. "Their contributions will not only help us publish DarkLit Sails but also pave the way for more diverse voices to be heard in the literary world."
