Here’s a really cool piece of news: ResAliens is back! I had a story in this mag way back in 2011 and now that it has returned, I’m in it again–as featured author no less–with my tale “Our Song”.
This makes me happy. It’s like seeing an old friend after a decade!

Here’s another publication I should have mentioned a lot earlier. Professor Feiff’s Compleat Pocket Guide to Xenobiology for the Galactic Traveller on the Move includes my story “Blink”, which is an evil little tail of accelerated evolution (would that be Evilution?).
Continuing with my review of things that got published and I never announced due to early-year craziness, here’s Phantom Thieves and Sagacious Scoundrels, which contains my story “The Smoke, And Mirrors”, about anti-heroes doing anti-heroic things with class and pizzazz. Purchase link here.
My story Homesinger — which I utterly adore, has been published in the April 2023 edition of The Fifth Di. Link here.
Good news of the day is that I just sent back the contract and my story “A Truth Among Several” will be published in Swords and Sorcery.
Stupefying Stories is running a series of tales about a very different colony ship called the Brahma. I’ve written a darkly humorous piece for it entitled “Nuclear Family”, which is today’s installment.
It’s a short read, and it stands alone (though you can always read the precious stories if you like!), and I’ve linked to it here.
Sale! My story “Bells on the Wind” has been accepted by Every Day Fiction, a publisher I’ve loved since they first started out. I’ll let everyone know when it is available to read.
Cool news for today is that my story “The Odinian Job” is up at Page and Spine. This is a short piece in a shared universe, but it stands alone, and I had a lot of fun writing it… Link here.
This is a wonderful writing week. I get to share not one, but TWO covers of books I loved to write and can’t wait to see published.The Swords of Rasna is a fantasy book set in classical times, as the Etruscan League of 12 desperately fights against the growing might of the early Roman Empire.
As you can probably tell by the cover, this isn’t your grandfather’s Roman Empire!
I will, of course, let everyone know when this one is published!
Andromeda Spaceways Magazine, which Includes my story “The Geezer Express” has been released. I’ve wanted to sell a story to ASM since I started writing, and now that it’s finally happened and my ASM story is in the wild, I’m delighted. Plus, check out the gorgeous cover!
