In honor of LTUE, my metaphysical/magic realism/alternate future collection is on sale for $2.99.

This collection includes my highest-paid story to date, The Cyborg and the Cemetery, which incidentally was also one of the stories that caused me the most grief. I’d just finished a Heinlein reading spree and desperately wanted to write something with ( Read more... )

The Hugo-award-winning cast of Writing Excuses has invited me for a guest appearance. Well, technically, they’ve invited me for four guest appearances, subbing in for Dan Wells, who is currently in Germany not-being-a-serial-killer.

I’m pleased to announce that my short story “Deadfall” will be published in the SHATTERED SHIELDS anthology, edited by Jennifer Brozek and Bryan Thomas Schmidt. The book will be released from Baen in November 2014.
