Who Has Two Thumbs and is Now a Member of the SFWA? This Guy!

This is not something I ever actually considered happening. But as of July 8, following publication of my short story, "Beldame," in Diabolical Plots and after my application was approved, I am now officially an associate member of SFWA--the Science Fiction & Fantasy Writers of America. This means I am now a member of both SFWA and HWA--the Horror Writers Association.

No, this doesn't come with a trophy or honorarium, but it feels really good to be acknowledged.

But that's not enough! Next stop... Active Member status!

"Beldame" is out!

Gaze upon this gorgeousness! Seriously!

I am pleased to say that my story, "Beldame," has gone to press as part of the anthology, Diabolical Plots Year Five.

This is probably my most positive, upbeat story, and it's a modern fantasy tale. It's not quite an urban fantasy; in fact, it would be the opposite: a rural fantasy.

It will appear on the Diabolical Plots website next year, but if you can't wait and want to support them, you can buy the anthology at the following locations:

Amazon

Barnes & Noble

iBooks

Kobo
