2nd story sale of the New Year

Thrilled to announce that my story "Pieces of Blackness" will appear in the anthology 'The Grimscribe's Puppets,' a tribute to Thomas Ligotti, and edited by the redoubtable Joseph S. Pulver Sr., and due out this Fall from Miskatonic River Press.

Ad Astra convention

I will be panelling at Ad Astra in Toronto, April 13 – 15. Which is to say I'll be on some writerly-type panel discussions, not actually putting up the panelling. I hope so, at any rate. See you there! More info at the link.

Yet another story accepted for issue 3

I've bought Andrew Hook's story "The Quickening" for issue 3. Only one (possibly two) spot(s) left for fiction.

Story sale

Very pleased to announce that my tale "The White-Face at Dawn" has sold to the anthology A Season in Carcosa, edited by Joseph Pulver, and due this year from Miskatonic River Press. A Season in Carcosa contains new tales based on Robert W. Chambers' 'The King in Yellow.'

New Year, new price

Because it's the new year, and in an effort to clear stock and generate income to put toward issue 3, I've reduced the price on issue 2 of Shadows & Tall Trees. $10 shipped to North America and $15 to the rest of the world.

Another tale selected for issue 3

Very pleased to announce that Gary McMahon's story "Kill All Monsters" will appear in issue 3 of Shadows & Tall Trees. Thus far, we have fiction from Gary, Nina Allan, Ray Cluley, and Don Tumasonis.

Cover art for issue 3

I've secured the cover art for issue 3. It's not a photograph, this time, but rather a painting by artist Eric Lacombe. Will unveil it once the cover is designed.
