What are your feelings about it?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>ELLEN DATLOW: I have mixed feelings. I\u2019d prefer there was no longer a need for such a call out to women as women are in horror all year round. We create it, edit it, read it all year round. On the other hand, anything that promotes horror and especially newer voices, voices that are not readily heard, is a positive.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ellen, when I read your bio, I was literally floored to read that you have edited over 100 anthologies over the span of your career. My first thought was, I wonder if she has any pet favorites? Are their a few anthologies that really stand out for you? (I\u2019m grabbing my notes so I can buy them straight away.)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I do have a few favorites: my unthemed horror anthologies like <em>The Dark<\/em>, <em>Inferno<\/em>, and <em>Fearful Symmetries<\/em>; <em>Supernatural Noir<\/em> (I\u2019d love to edit a second one of those).

Can you tell me what that particular honor and validation of your work feels like?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s always an honor to be recognized for one\u2019s work.

A little bit of a behind-the-scenes peek?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Basically (very basically):<\/p>\n<p>It takes about a year from sale of anthology to me handing in the ms to my publisher. During that time I solicit stories from writers whose work I love, and give them the deadline (a couple of months before my deadline).<\/p>\n<p>Every few months I contact the writers from whom I\u2019ve solicited stories to ask how it\u2019s coming along and if it\u2019s coming; and once stories are submitted, I accept or reject them; I edit each story I buy (or plan to buy&#8212;some stories I won\u2019t commit to taking until I see a revision that both the author and I are happy with); as soon as I commit to a story, I send out the contract and pay the contributor.<\/p>\n<p>I do a final line edit of each story and as I do that I\u2019m also working on the order of the table of contents; put together the front matter, which includes creating a title page, copyright page, write the intro, adding bios, an About the Editor, previous titles. Put the whole ms together and email it to my in-house editor.<\/p>\n<p><strong><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"12704\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.cemeterydance.com\/extras\/women-in-horror-interview-ellen-datlow\/echoes-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cemeterydance.com\/extras\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/echoes.jpg?fit=316%2C475&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"316,475\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"echoes\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cemeterydance.com\/extras\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/echoes.jpg?fit=316%2C475&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-12704\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cemeterydance.com\/extras\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/echoes-233x350.jpg?resize=233%2C350\" alt=\"\" width=\"233\" height=\"350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cemeterydance.com\/extras\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/echoes.jpg?resize=233%2C350&amp;ssl=1 233w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cemeterydance.com\/extras\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/echoes.jpg?w=316&amp;ssl=1 316w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 233px) 85vw, 233px\" \/>I\u2019m excited about an anthology coming up called <em>ECHOS: The Saga Anthology of Ghost Stories<\/em>.

The subtitle explains the theme.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ellen, lately I\u2019ve been waging war against some stereotypes that come against the genre of horror. Can you tell me what you love about the genre and maybe give us a definition of what horror is or is not?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a whole range of types of stories. It isn\u2019t one thing. There are many sub-genres such as sf\/horror, terror tales, supernatural horror, contes cruel, body horror. I love that it\u2019s so varied. I do see a difference between horror and dark fantasy\u2026 it\u2019s a tonal difference and also a difference in the ending. Dark fantasies end on a more hopeful aspect than horror<\/p>\n<p><strong>I usually ask the people I interview what flavor of ice cream they would be and why.
