Writing News

I have some writing-related news from the past few weeks.

First off, my story, “The Case of the Wounded Heart”, which I enjoyed the hell out of writing, is now available in the anthology, A Study in Lavender: Queering Sherlock Holmes from Lethe Press. I’ve mentioned the anthology here before, but it takes characters from the Holmes mythos (including, of course, Holmes and Watson) and imagines them (or reveals them, perhaps) as gay. I haven’t had a chance to read it, but I’m dying to get my hands on it. It’s available now here or at Amazon .

Second, while the story was accepted a while ago, I finally signed the contract for my story, “The Burning Bridge to Heaven”, which will be appearing in Abyss & Apex next quarter. I will, obviously, link to it when it’s up. It’s a kind of British 60′s X-Files story and was also a lot of fun to write.

Finally, I also signed a contract for my story, “Doors”, which will be narrated as a podcast on Podcastle. “Doors” was originally published in GUD Issue 6 and, though I usually don’t have favorite stories, is probably one of my favorites.

That’s all for now.

 

The Case of the Wounded Heart

The Case of the Wounded Heart

I refrained from saying anything earlier, despite receiving the acceptance, but now that I’ve received the contract I can reveal that my story,”The Case of the Wounded Heart”, will be appearing in the Lethe Press anthology, A Study In Lavender. The anthology is basically a gay-themed Sherlock Holmes anthology containing stories in which at least one of the characters from the Holmes mythos is portrayed as gay. I love Holmes stories, so I had a great time writing this one. It features Inspector Lestrade. Publication is currently set for summer of 2011.
