It's July 22nd and tempis is fugiting. I don't have any memento mori handy, but there is a new Dear Reader update for your reading pleasure.
My story "The Oracle Spoke" has been reprinted in Realms, an anthology of stories drawn from the first year of Clarkesworld Magazine, a nifty example of the new generation of webzines. The anthology includes stories from all kinds of cool people, like Jeff Vandermeer, Cat Valente, Jay Lake, and really more names than I can list. You can check it out here. Speaking of reprints, "Three Days of Rain" is slated for Prime Books' Best of the Year anthology. And oh yeah! 3 Days and Oracle both got an honorable mention in David Hartwell's Year's Best. I guess that's better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick. Actual writing news, even though it's kind of old news by now: I sold a brand spanking new story to Darrell Schweitzer and Martin H. Greenburg for their new Urban Werewolf anthology coming out with Pocket Books in late 2008 or early 2009. "Country Mothers' Sons" is only tangentially a werewolf story, as I'm not overly dedicated to those classic horror tropes, but I'm delighted it found a good home. "Proving the Rule," my dark fantasy novella, is now in print in Marvin Kaye's latest anthology of long fiction, The Book of Wizards, published for the Science Fiction Bookclub of America. Am I bold enough to suggest joining the bookclub just to get your hands on my story? Mmmmaybe I am, and then again mmmmaybe I ain't. The Engine's Child, will be available in stores November 25, but it is already availabe for pre-ordering! Check out Amazon or ask your local independent about pre-ordering through them. Um. I mean if you want to... I'm booked into the hotel for World Fantasy in Calgary. After much dithering, I think my next con after that will be WisCon in May 2009. |
