May News:

Oh my goodness, two more blurbs! The wonderful YA fantasy author Leah Cypess gave me a lovely quote for IRONSKIN, calling it "gothic, eerie, and pitch-perfect", and the amazing Ann Aguirre says "Don't miss this debut." - see their full quotes here. I am so grateful to Cypess, Aguirre, MacLeod, and Hobson for their time and kind words.

I am delighted to say I sold a brand-new story, "Paperheart", to the Bibliotheca Fantastica anthology, as well as a very short story, "Monster in the Cafeteria", to the kids' magazine Spider!

My narration of Michael J. DeLuca's dark The Prophet's Daughters is live on Pseudopod.

I've been added as a workshop leader for the 2012 Cascade Writers Workshop (assuming enough people sign up!). This is an amazing weekend workshop at the end of July in Vancouver WA, and I'm thrilled to be a part of it.

Caroline M. Yoachim and I sold a story to Lightspeed! My first collaboration sale, and first to Lightspeed as well. It's set on a colony ship, and it's called Flash Bang Remember.

And all by my ownself I sold a story ("One Ear Back") to Beneath Ceaseless Skies! My third sale to them, which I think is a first for me. I'm very fond of this fairy tale retelling and glad to see it find a home.
