Other times an obsession can drive a person to invent something new cure a disease or attempt to right a great wrong. And at other times obsessing can send a person down a dark and disturbing path.Obsessions can be healthy; can be born out of love and the desire to protect. They can stem from a need to fix something that is broken or replace something that is missing. But they can also be pervasive and disgusting unhealthy and bizarre. They can be mild or quaint and eclectic or they can be all-consuming and life altering.These authors tackle the subject with all original genre-bending fiction: Ezekiel James BostonStephen CouchJoe CronLeah CutterDayle DermatisRobert JeschonekKari KilgoreMichael KingswoodKate PavelleAnnie ReedKristine Kathryn RuschLeigh SaundersRebecca M.
