Voice of the Deep in For the Oceans Anthology

bloodandstardust — Mon, 28 Nov 2011 21:01:58 +0000

My short story Voice of the Deep (Leo o Ke Kuhohonu ) is now available in the For the Oceans Anthology.

http://www.sonar4publications.com/2011/11/for-oceans-anthology-on-sale-now.html

The real world issue of how sonar (no relation to the publisher) affects our oceans and its animals comes up in the short story. As well as the legal issue called standing, which is a doctrine which covers who is allowed to bring a lawsuit for a given injury. This story, like my story Mile Zero, explores fictional directions in which the law can go.

I’m really happy with the excellent job the Psuedopod team did with this.

Have a listen for free at Psuedopod. ( Oh, and if you are so inclined, don’t forget to feed the pod ! )

The Tangled Bank: Love, Wonder, and Evolution

bloodandstardust — Thu, 16 Sep 2010 03:18:37 +0000

This news is a bit dated but I’ve been meaning to post something about the The Tangled Bank: Love, Wonder, and Evolution.

I just love the title of the anthology. Author, poet, and editor Chris Lynch has assembled a wonderful collection of poetry and short stories commemorating and celebrating Charles Darwin. Highly recommended.

Right now it is available as an E Publication but I’m told it will be available in print in the future.

The Moon and the Mesa in Midnight Echo #4

bloodandstardust — Thu, 16 Sep 2010 03:12:46 +0000

The Australian Horror Writer’s Association publishes a magazine called Midnight Echo: The Magazine of the Australian Horror Writer’s Association. Issue Four was edited by noted author Lee Battersby. One of the goals of the AHWA and the magazine is to promote Australian horror authors internationally. The AHWA website is extensive and has a lot of up to date information. This link goes to the section about Midnight Echo.

I’m told it is a nice looking publication. Midnight Echo does not provide contributor copies to the authors but they did send me a pdf document so I could get an idea what it looks like.

A recent attempt to locate and secure a copy at World Con failed, so if anyone spots this one in the wild please let me know. I’m curious to see how it all turned out and excited to read the story in the magazine by Christopher Green.
