B2MEM 2012

March is "Back to Middle-earth Month", a Tolkien fiction festival where you get daily fic and art challenges throughout the month, and take on as many as you like. This year's theme looks brilliant - a game of BINGO! More information here, and there is a new LJ community too: b2mem.

Dark Currents from NewCon Press

I'm very pleased that my very short story "In Tauris" will be appearing in the anthology Dark Currents, edited by Ian Whates, published by NewCon Press, and launched at Eastercon.

This is a particularly exciting publication for me, because it will mean that this year is my tenth consecutive year in print.

Other contributors are: Adrian Tchaikovsky, Adam Nevill, Tricia Sullivan, Rod Rees, Nina Allan, Andrew Hook, Finn Clarke, Lavie Tidhar, Jan Edwards, Emma Coleman, Rebecca J Payne, Sophia McDougall, Aliette de Bodard, V.C. Linde, and Neil Williamson.

The cover, by Ben Baldwin, is amazing. Under the cut. (Huge version here.)
