New new new:

John Joseph Adams is putting together an anthology called Other Worlds Than These (despite my wanting to call it Worlds Other Than These, the title still has not changed!) and I'm pleased to say that "Beyond Porch and Portal" will be included in the collection. This is reprinted from Poe.

Beneath Ceaseless Skies will be publishing "Lady Marmalade," a story in my traveling circus series. And Jabberwocky will be publishing "Harder Trick Than Heart" this fall. That story came from a challenge in my writing group.

Shimmer 14 is in the wild, with carnal carnivores, haunted bridges and houses, balloon girls, mud boys, werewolves, an uncanny trashman, ghosts, soldiers, tea-harvesting robots, and of course, an Einstein-award-winning mathematician. Shimmer 14 is also our first issue made for Kindle and Nook, so please check that out! Shimmer #15 is full and we're looking at a spring release. There is much Shimmery goodness ahead this year, so stay tuned!

Editor Sean Wallace has announced the table of contents for The Mammoth Book of Steampunk and "Icebreaker" is among the stories. I'm so pleased to be part of this collection!

Both Candle in the Attic Window and Future Lovecraft are available from Innsmouth Free Press. If you love Gothic stories or Lovecraft, please stop by and pick up one or both. They're also available for your ereaders, but I have to say, the physical books are gorgeous. I love this publisher! You can find "The Snow Man" and "Myristica-fragrans" in those respectively.

"Basil Hawthorne and the Cliff Tomb is available in Issue 51 of Andromeda Spaceways Inflight Magazine. This is another piece which involves the pharaoh Hatshepsut--she does get around, doesn't she? Combining her with archaeology, comet disasters, and bumbling thieves only seemed right.

"If Only to Taste Her Again" is part of Historical Lovecraft from Innsmouth Free Press. Historical Lovecraft is available for your Kindle, Nook, and in hardcopy.
