  • New story in The Colored Lens

    My story “The Hungry Ghosts” is now out in e-zine The Colored Lens, available from Amazon.

    It’s free if you have Kindle Unlimited; otherwise, for the low, low price of $4.99, you get my story and 10 others.

    Content warnings: profanity, sex, Christianity; plus a protagonist who’s already dead (at least she knows it).

    This was my Clarion West application story; and as I attended the workshop in 2008, it’s, um, taken me a while to get this published. All the stories I wrote before attending Clarion West have now officially been published, though! (The ones that aren’t terrible, at least.)

  • Mythic Orbits Vol. 2 Release Party tonight!

    https://www.facebook.com/events/432196747273586/

    Donald and I both have short story reprints in Mythic Orbits Volume 2, an anthology that has its official release party on Facebook tonight.

    Fortunately, the editor and publisher, our friend Travis Perry of Bear Publications, doesn’t like long book-release parties anymore than we do. He thinks it will only be about 15 minutes.

    Mythic Orbits is an anthology series Travis does that aims to collect the best short fiction available from Christian authors. It’s a little different than what we’re doing at Mysterion: Travis requires the stories in his anthology series to be written by Christian authors, but not to have any particular Christian content (though they’re allowed to!). Whereas we require Mysterion stories to be about Christianity in some thoughtful and significant way, but not to be written by Christians (though again, they can be!).

    The book release party is at 8 pm Central time tonight (Friday, July 27th)/9 pm Eastern. Donald and I will probably be there (online). If you’re interested in learning more about the 11 stories in the anthology, please stop by!

    My contribution is “The Workshop at the End of the World”, which originally appeared in Daily Science Fiction in December 2015.
