The countdown is on for the release of Songs for Dark Seasons! This part of the process is always anxciting: waiting for the book to be a real thing in the world while, at the same time, reviewers have ARCs and some lovely folks are starting to talk about it… Here are some beautiful blurbs … Continue reading
Delighted to say that ‘Seeds’, the first story Angela and I wrote for Midnight and Moonshine, is getting a second outing in this gorgeous new anthology edited by Paula Guran! Mythic Journeys: Myths & Legends Retold collects classic myths and legends retold by some pretty fantastic fantasy writers like Neil Gaiman, Tanith Lee, Charles de … Continue reading
A little while ago, Paula Guran announced the table of contents for the Year’s Best Dark Fantasy & Horror 2018 anthology that she has edited for Prime Books and I’m so stoked that she has included my story ‘Little Digs’, which originally appeared in The Dark and is also the titular story of my forthcoming … Continue reading
How is it already November? Isn’t it still April? Nope, you’re right: it’s November. O.o High time I posted a little update about the goings-on around here, don’t you think? Like, the fact that several months ago (*February*cough*cough*) after Neil Gaiman’s latest book came out, I had my first piece published in The Atlantic, called … Continue reading

And this news came hot on the heels of another bit of excitement: Paula Guran … Continue reading

Got home today to find this beauty awaiting me: My story ‘Forever, Miss Tapekwa County’ appears in this lovely volume (edited by Paula Guran). Allow me a little happy dance as I come to terms with the fact that my work is in an anthology with all of the awesome authors listed on the cover … Continue reading
Got home today to find this marvellous anthology awaiting me: Paula Guran picked my story ‘From the Teeth of Strange Children’ to sit alongside some GIANTS in speculative fiction (somehow, it feels like a mixed metaphor, calling these authors giants in a book about vampires, but anyway…) Between this and the Clarkesworld antho, I’ve got … Continue reading
