My story “Brother’s Keeper” just came out in the latest issue of Fantasy Short Stories<\/em><\/a>.\u00c2\u00a0 This is a sequel to my earlier story “The Year of the Bear”<\/a>, published in Allegory<\/a><\/em> way back in 2010.\u00c2\u00a0 I’ll leave it to you to decide whether the four-year gap is due to the vagaries of publishing, or to how slowly I write.<\/p>\n

“Brother’s Keeper” has a “traditional” fantasy setting.\u00c2\u00a0 With elves.\u00c2\u00a0 And a strong-willed 14-year old female protagonist.\u00c2\u00a0 Depending on your own reading preferences, you can take\u00c2\u00a0this as\u00c2\u00a0either\u00c2\u00a0endorsement or warning.<\/p>\n

Here’s the tagline:<\/p>\n

Aleine can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t stand her annoying younger brother Imry, who\u00c2\u00a0never gets in trouble for anything\u00c2\u00a0and was born with the\u00c2\u00a0ability to do magic, an ability Aleine desperately wishes she had.\u00c2\u00a0 But now Imry is in danger, and Aleine\u00c2\u00a0the only one\u00c2\u00a0with\u00c2\u00a0any chance\u00c2\u00a0of rescuing\u00c2\u00a0him in time.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I\u00c2\u00a0hope\u00c2\u00a0it won’t be another four years before you see the third installment!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
