I love it when work and results are directly linked this way.

Sooooo all that revising I did all week? Tres worthwhile.

"Stay", the story about wendigoes, pomegranates, Raven, and the ethics of cold-weather communities, will appear in the inaugural volume of Chilling Tales: From the Great White North, a new annual anthology series of Canadian horror edited by Michael Kelly and published by Edge.

What with all the working on long-form stuff lately it's been a while since I got to report one of these, and I will unabashedly say that selling stuff feels nice.

The book should be out in March 2011, premiering at the World Horror Convention in Austin. Considering I know some of the other names on the TOC so far (*cough*Claude*cough*jsridler), I commend the book in general to your attention.

Heeeeeeeee. <3

Thank you for the notes. They helped much. :)

[csecooney.livejournal.com]

It was my pleasure. Believe me, the more I know about your writing process and your writing and what's helpful, the better I'll get at it. That would, of course, require me reading more of your stories. (Hints darkly.)

[leahbobet.livejournal.com]

WOOOHOOO!! Congratulations!!

Times like these I really feel the lack of an animated gif for an icon. Instead, I GRIN AT YOU.

[leahbobet.livejournal.com]

Hee!

I totally want some of those too. And I have no idea how to make them.

[rushthatspeaks.livejournal.com]

[leahbobet.livejournal.com]

Way to go. :)

[leahbobet.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

[onemoreshadow.livejournal.com]

Congrats, Leah! I'm in that one, too. I'll be in Austin for WHC for the launch, although I was already planning to go anyway. Should be fun. It's got quite the line-up.

[leahbobet.livejournal.com]

Ooh -- congrats! Now I'm wondering if I should look at going...

[handful-ofdust.livejournal.com]

Whoo hoo! Yeah, I'm in there too--Mike took "The Shrines", for which I'm very happy and grateful. Really looking forward to reading everybody else's stuff.

[leahbobet.livejournal.com]

Hey, cool! This is really going to be one hell of a TOC here. :)

[wirewalking.livejournal.com]

Yaaaaaay! (Am just done running so I'm not feeling terribly articulate. Have a DOUBLE, NAY TREBLE YAY for good measure.)

I remain deeply intrigued by this story and would very much like to get my grimy paws on it. No, I'm not feeling terribly subtle either.

[leahbobet.livejournal.com]

Heeeee. So yeah, I can e-mail it over if you want. *g*

[wirewalking.livejournal.com]

*puppy eyes*

[deakat]

Wooooot! This makes me happy.

I'm considering going to Austin for World Horror next year, so I may be able to attend its launch, also!

[leahbobet.livejournal.com]

Ooh. I'm thinking about it? I like Austin, and I like WHC. Going to have to see how everything else shapes up in the interim.
