Hollow Woman
This story will be in the July issue of Farrago’s Wainscot. The Wainscot, btw, won the Million Writers Award for Best New Online Magazine.
Janissary Games
Odyssey just accepted this story for their July/August 2009 issue. My story is a rather dark take on the issue’s theme: the biology of play.
Another Anthology Bites the Dust
Darin Bradley, fiction editor of Farrago’s Wainscot, let me know that Crawlspace, the first FW anthology, is officially dead. Drollerie Press canceled the book “because of the impact of worsening sales.” In other words, the economy sucks. My story “Living Inside the Box” was going to be in Crawlspace, alongside stories by Forrest Aguirre and Hal Duncan. Dangit. That’s the second anthology my work was supposed to be in that got canned.
