"Kelpie" by Tom Vaine

TOM VAINE lives in Elora, Ontario, and works as a high school teacher. He has a graduate degree in Literature Studies, with a focus on speculative fiction. It is Tom's belief that this genre can do a lot more work than weaving fantastical stories of tin men in cigar shaped spaceships. That said, he does think the monsters are pretty cool.

Tom's stories have appeared in Bewildering Stories online magazine as well as Rhapsody, Guelph's annual poetry collection.
