Strange Economics anthology

I’m very happy to say that the Strange Economics anthology is over 80% funded!

Strange Economics is an anthology of speculative fiction on the theme of “economics”. If that sounds like your thing, or if you just want to support the project, please take a minute to check out the fund-raising reward tiers and see if any of them appeal to you. All of the money we raise goes to the authors involved.

If you’re a speculative fiction author, there is an open call for submissions. We pay 1.5c/word CDN for accepted stories. If you have a story that you think might fit, we’d love to see it.

Publication in Broadswords and Blasters

It was a bit of an experiment -trying to emulate the flavor of a medieval epic, mainly The Song of Roland– and I like how it turned out. You’re thrown into the middle of a battle as a brave captain leads his force against a much larger army. If you can get over the style -which is deliberately archaic- I think you might like it, too. It’s on track to come out in April 2018.

Angels and Wormholes – book available on Amazon

My science fiction novel, Angels and Wormholes, is now available on Amazon kindle.

(An earlier draft of the novel is still available for free on Wattpad,  where it’s gotten a great reception, including 145K reads.)

I hope you’ll check it out if you’re interested, and please leave a review. These are worth far more than money.

Thanks for your support!

 

Upcoming Publication in 49th Parallels Anthology

My story “True North” will be appearing in the 49th Parallels anthology from Bundoran Press. Bundoran Press has a history of producing award-winning science fiction anthologies.

The 49th Parallels anthology features stories of alternative Canadian histories and futures – “what might have been – or what might yet be,” in honour of Canada’s 150th birthday. The anthology is scheduled for launch in October 2017, at Can-Con.

The editor of 49th Parallels is Hayden Trenholm, four-time novelist and Aurora Award winning short fiction writer and editor.

The 49th Parallels anthology is discussed in a CBC article:

How would have Canada’s population changed if WWII played out differently or if Quebec had voted to separate from the country? How could one small change alter the future of the nation — or maybe even the world?

Looking forward to the launch of 49th Parallels!
