Beware of Scary Circus Folk

My story 'Parasol Dance with the Chalkstripe Man' is now published in issue one of Sideshow Fables. Here's a short teaser:

Sally Stevens seizes upon an opportunity to use the magic parasol that was a parting gift from her father.

I can't wait to get my contributor's copy.

And in a sidenote: check out the latest issue of Arkham Tales where Olive Lemon has a whole page dedicated to her... Well an advert at least.

Plus TTA Press are offering a free copy of the wonderful Black Static. Get a copy now while stocks last.

Three

This has been a weekend dedicated to the number three. Oh, and it's not over yet - joy.

First off the three winners of the ScaryCircusAct competition were announced.

Then we have three publications - not all mine. :)

My story The Man who wasn't a Man at all is up at Flash Scribe. And it doesn't matter what browser you use this time, it is viewable in all. Phew! It is a follow up to the first story 'The Man who Climbed out of a Suitcase', but I think it stands alone with no problem.* She hopes.

Barry Napier's story Colonists is up at Flash Scribe as well. You may want to eat your breakfast before moving onto Barry's nasty little tale.

And then we have Jamie Eyberg's story Nine which is available to read at 52 Stitches. Hope you like cats. Nah, it's a horror story - I hope you don't.

Now of course, if all good things come in threes and the above two things were good, I am sure you'll agree, why were the final three things rejections from Shimmer, Arkham Tales, and Asimov's. ::Scowls:: I will kick this rejection habit by summer.
