Last week my contributor copy of Historical Lovecraft arrived!

I’m especially excited about this anthology because it’s the very first one that’s actually in print (The Crimson Pact: Volume 1 bears the honor of being the very first since I started sending out stories last year). Although I’m a big fan of the digital revolution, ebooks, and killing fewer trees, there’s something about holding this book in my hands that makes it seem real…

I’m an author! Or, at least, I actually feel like one. That I could someday write and publish a novel actually seems possible, maybe even probable, for the first time. Not too long ago I didn’t really believe that anyone would want to read or publish my work, so this is a big step for me.

In other news, I’m currently in negotiations to present at Ba-Con, awaiting my Marcon schedule, and thrilled to be included among the authors presenting panels at Origins! It’s going to be a busy summer!
