Chimerascope: Extended ordering period
ChiZine Publications has decided to go with a single release date for both the limited hardcover and the trade paperback editions of my new collection, Chimerascope, which means that the release date for the hardcover is being moved back to March 2010, to match the release of the trade paperback. They're also extending the ordering period for the hardcover

"Jigsaw" in Greek, apparently with nipples
My story "Jigsaw" has been published in the Greek magazine, Ennea. Now, "Jigsaw" was originally written for Odyssey, a YA SF anthology edited by Julie Czerneda in 2004, and being YA, I'm fairly certain my story didn't inspire the cover shown here at the right. Ennea is a weekly comic magazine supplement to a major Greek newspaper that publishes an SF story in each issue.

My first (and most published) story, "Spirit Dance," appeared in June this year translated into Italian in the long-running magazine, Robot (cover to the left, by Stephan Martiniere). Cool to be sharing cover credits with Lois McMaster Bujold and Robert Reed. This is the 18th appearance and 14th language for this little tale, which is encouraging,

Personal website for writers: a plug
Here's a plug for the gentleman (and friend) who hosts my web site here. Marcel Gagné, via his consulting company, Salmar Consulting, offers web sites for professional writers. Marcel hosts the sites on very fast servers, and they run under Drupal, which I personally have found to be powerful, flexible, and easy to use. I maintain the content and design of this entire site myself, with only a bare minimum knowledge of a few HTML codes. Check out the link above for more information.
