I have an interest in this kickstarter project as I have a 8000 word sword and sorcery yarn in Anthology of the Damned - Necromoirrium called The Demon from Another World.
I have been struck by the sheer enthusuasm and energy of those behind this project and wish them well.
It looks like I'll have three of my stories reprinted in October.
These are:
Although the title might change by the time I send this story out for consideration by potential markets I have now completed another new fantasy tale. This one stands at 4,600 words and is called Ossani's Apprentice. It's a sequel to a couple of other stories, Emerging from Their Twilit Realms and The Moneylender of Oriaska, neither of which has so far been published.
My Medusa-themed story An Oddity, which appeared in the January issue of Schlock! Webzine, is now scheduled to be reprinted in an American anthology, Strange Aeon 2024. I was emailed the final proofs today, which had just a couple of minor edits, all to the good. I am looking forward to this story being published again later this year, probably next month.
Five days after my last story, I've finished the first draft of a new sword and sorcery tale: The Ghoul-Catcher.
8,800 words long, though it may end up a little shorter by the time I've finished editing it. On the other hand it might not.
Just finished a new fantasy story called Emerging from Their Twilit Realms at 4000 words, another instalment in my ongoing saga about Welgar the Cursed, a character who, I must admit, I treat very badly. Now I need to psyche up to start another, knowing that from next month I won't be able to get any writing of my own done while I'm reading submissions for Swords & Sorceries: Tales of Heroic Fantasy Volume 9.
It now appears that two of my oldest stories are set to be reprinted next year in a brand new anthology. I can't say anything more about the project yet as the publisher has still to announce it in public, but I hope to be able to give further details soon.
