…that my story “Masks of War,” originally published in Fantasy Magazine in July of 2008, recevied an Honorable Mention from the editor of The Year’s Best Horror, which is quite an honor.
The story is still available on-line free, and I’ll leave it to the readers to decide whether or not they would call this a ‘horror’ story.
I’ve just added my short story “Touching the Dead” to my website, for those who haven’t had the opportunity to read it in its entirety.
This story was originally printed in Jim Baen’s Universe, back in June of 2007, and was selected for The Best of Jim Baen’s Universe 2, which came out in July of 2008.

ArmadilloCon 31 was a blast, and I happily survived my first stint as an instructor for the writing workshop….my first time to be on that side of the table. I had a wonderful time catching up with all the great Texas fans and writers, and am really looking forward to FenCon (which is coming up in September).

Thanks to the folks at Baen’s Bar who critiqued it for me, and to Michael Merriam who answered my many questions about Retinitis Pigmentosa and blindness. (The detective in this story has RP).
