FenCon XIII

I'll be at FenCon this weekend. Here's my schedule. Come see me talk about things!

___________________________ Friday 3:00 PM  - 4:00 PM  Chinaberry  Our Communicators Are Supercomputers!  Description: Star Trek has boldly (or not so boldly) predicted the path of technology. What did they get right? What did they miss? And will we ever get that transporter?

___________________________ Friday 6:00 PM  - 7:00 PM  Irving Lecture Hall  The Slushpile  Description: Editors discuss the horrors of the slushpile and how you can make your manuscript stand out.

___________________________ Saturday  10:00 AM  - 11:00 AM  Trinity V  FenCon Squares  Description: It's the classic game show Hollywood Squares with a FenCon twist! Join us for an hour of fun and games as our panel of guests try to help (or bluff) our contestants. We even have a "Secret Square" in each game! Come check it out. You might win a prize!

___________________________ Sunday  10:00 AM  - 11:00 AM  Red Oak  What Could Possibly Go Wrong?  Description: Scientific advances we see in the future, and how they might go wrong (and lead to interesting stories)?

Things from Outer Space

I've got a new story in Things from Outer Space, edited by Hank Davis! Get your copy today.

"As It Lays" by Yours-Truly is situated between stories by H.P. Lovecraft and Robert Silverberg. Also featured: Stories by David Drake, John W. Campbell, Sarah A. Hoyt, Clifford D. Simak, and more.

It's a bit surreal to be in such great company, with so many of my writing heroes--but hey, I'll take it! Big thanks to Hank for having me.

"The Man from the Future" in Rosebud #61

My short story "The Man from the Future" is in the newest issue of Rosebud Magazine (issue 61).

It's a thrill to find my work in the pages of Rosebud, The Biggest Little Literary Magazine in the World. The magazine was a favorite of Ray Bradbury's and, in my book you can't get a much better endorsement than that.
