Suleiman Ali asked Christopher Barzak:

I just read The Trampling and found it a moving honest story. Just wondering if you could point me to any of your other works of a similar nature ?

Christopher Barzak Hi Suleiman, thank you so much for your words and your question. I have several other stories I've published in the past year or two that are retellings or reworkings of older classic genre oriented stories like the Trampling, and some are online like The Trampling. They do vary in tone and aim, from story to story, but share the retelling aspect in common. Here's a retelling of Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens I published at Uncanny last year, for instance: http://uncannymagazine.com/article/bo...

And here's a link to a retelling of the fairy tale The Twelve Dancing Princesses, called "Sister Twelve: Confessions of a Party Monster": http://www.apex-magazine.com/sister-t...

I'm hopeful that a full length collection of these types of stories will be published in the next year or two, so keep checking in to see about that.

My other full length collection of short stories, Before and Afterlives, won last year's Shirley Jackson Award for Best Collection, and is available to order online easily at Amazon or Barnes and Noble, and some other online book outlets. Here's a link to it at Amazon:

And if you're interested in my bibliography in general, here it is on my website:

Again, thanks for your interest!
