Distinct Poplar is a twice monthly young adult (YA) short story series of dark fantasy and storybook horror, written and narrated by Matt Herzberg. Distinct Poplar takes place in a sprawling city, where the supernatural and fantastic things are common place. This vast metropolis looks and feels like a fairy tale kingdom come to life and thrust unceremoniously into the modern era. Here, people practically live on top of one another, covered in the grime and warships of everyday city living, and always keeping an eye out for the dark and sinister things awaiting just around the corner.
