I’m looking at putting together a collection of my works there, but would have to leave out “Iron Shoes” to do so….or 150 pages of other stories. (AB max is 350 pages per anthology…but I have about 500 pages of stories there).

If I do put one together, I’ll post about it here.

“…J. Kathleen Cheney’s “Of Ambergris, Blood, and Brandy”, which combines fantasy, mystery, and romance quite well in telling of a a mermaid-like spy who falls for a surface man as both investigate the disappearance of a number of people from the Golden City.”
(Rich Horton, Locus Magazine, March 2011)

If you’re reading for nominations and you’d like a copy (in .doc, .rtf, .epub, or .mobi format), please e-mail me at jkcheney (at) earthlink.net, and I’ll be happy to e-mail you a copy.

Iron Shoes at Amazon
Also: Iron Shoes at B&N, Iron Shoes at Smashwords.

So if you’ve got a Kindle, go snabble up a copy!

ETA: They’ve already moved Iron Shoes back to its regular price, but that’s only 99 cents, so it’s still affordable!

These are my two novellas set in Saratoga Springs, both published in the summer of 2010 (in Alembical 2 and Panverse Two, respectively). As the second is a sequel to the first (but can be read as a stand-alone), I thought it best to put them up at the same time.

I hope to have these up on Amazon later this week as well.

This story was originally published in Shimmer Magazine’s Pirate Issue in Fall 2007, and this is the first time it’s been offered Free!

Have a good Talk Like a Pirate Day!
