I had two new sci-fi pieces out in July, one poem and one short story! My poem, “The Way Forward is a Maze,” appeared in the Veterans of Alien Wars issue of Eye to the Telescope. I wrote this poem for this call for submissions, and it turned out well. The poem is about how […]

Celtic tales worked their way into three of the poems of Old Legends and New Fables, specifically “A Man of the Earth,” “The Cromlech Glen, and “If You See the Black Dog.” I haven’t been able to retrace the details of the legend that inspired “A Man of the Earth,” but it has some bits in […]

If you’re looking for books for a lover of fantasy, I’ve got a few books you could check out! If you’d prefer short stories, Denizens of Distant Realms is half a dozen fantasy short stories with dragons, witches, fairies, cats, and more. If instead, you’d like a book that’s primarily poetry with a few stories, What […]

“Double Angel” started out as a Drawlloween prompt that I turned into a Cobalt City story. This was the first of the Friday Jones/Dulcamara stories I wrote, with the main character based on the character I’d played in a Cobalt City University game. She wound up being the sensible one of the group and was […]

My collection Intercity Illusions is full of urban fantasy stories, and “One, Two, Three, FOUR!” is no exception. The original idea for the story was a young bunch of wizards forming a rock band at their wizard school, where electric instruments were strictly prohibited. Along the way, they realize that their instruments are just the tools […]

My latest collection, Conceits of Whim and Fancy, is out today. It’s a collection of short and flash fiction, along with a handful of poems, all of which are fantasy. Fairy tales you’ve never read, magic workers young and old, and a few characters who defy description—all these and more can be found within Conceits of […]

I’ve been selling pieces pretty steadily, but I only had one new piece release in June. My poem “Lost in Space” appeared in Felis Futura, which is an anthology of future cats. I wrote this poem specifically for the anthology, involving cats on a spaceship and how their shedding might gum up the works a […]

My published alternate history (which I prefer to call fantastical history) can primarily be found in two collections: Unfixed Timelines and Unfixed Timelines 2. Both of these collections include stories along with brief essays on the history that inspired them. I’ve got plans for an eventual third volume in this series, and at that point, I plan […]

Because Greek and Roman mythology is some of the most commonly taught in the western world, it’s not surprising that a number of my pieces in Old Legends and New Fables reflect this knowledge. Even those pieces that deal with the legends of other cultures often get viewed through a Greek or Roman lens because of […]
