“Written on the Wind”, my fourth published story, has been given a fine audio version, read by Mur Lafferty, at Escape Pod. You can also read the full text of the story at the Escape Pod website, and there’s a lively discussion of the story on the podcast’s message board. Also, I recently learned that the Italian translation of Wild Cards 1 is of the new edition, so it does include my story “Powers”.

My story “Pupa” from the October 2010 Analog made the Locus Recommended Reading List!

I have just been invited to be an instructor for this year’s Alpha Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror Workshop for Young Writers!

I sold short story “Into the Nth Dimension” to DAW anthology Human for a Day, edited by Jennifer Brozek and Martin H. Greenberg. Also, I’ve added some new Upcoming Appearances.

I’ve put “Second Chance” from Alembical 2 and “Pupa” from the September 2010 Analog up for your reading pleasure.

Reprint sale! My story “Written on the Wind” (from sff.net anthology Beyond the Last Star) will be podcast on Escape Pod!

I sold “Citizen-Astronaut,” the story (based on my trip to “Mars”) that won Second Prize in the 2010 Jim Baen Memorial Writing Contest, to Analog. This is my third Analog sale, which makes me a member of the dreaded Analog Mafia. And yes, that means I sold to Realms of Fantasy and Analog in the same month.

Happy release day to Wild Cards I, featuring my story “Powers”!

Locus reviewer Rich Horton’s year-end summary for Analog calls out my “Teaching the Pig to Sing” for special praise. Because this story has been catching some critical attention, I’ve put it online for you to read for free. Tell all your friends! Also, my story “Tides of the Heart” has been accepted by the re-revived Realms of Fantasy.

My story “Letter to the Editor” was accepted by John Joseph Adams for his anthology The Mad Scientist’s Guide to World Domination; my story “Trust” was accepted by Daily Science Fiction; I have received an ARC of the revised Wild Cards I, which will be available on November 23; the website for the Cascade Writers writing workshop is now open for registration; and I’m quoted briefly in an Oregonian article about climate change in SF.
