I’ve been in a lot of really good Anthologies, but to be honest this one might be among the best. I’m so pleased to say that my story “Some of This Is True” appears in Fiction River: Dark and Deadly Passions. A scan of the TOC covers so many of my favorite writers. Like most […]

Face the Strange is Published!
I’m incredibly excited to present to you … Face the Strange, an anthology of amazing stories I’ve edited along with my daughter, Brigid, and introduced by Dean Wesley Smith. Mayhem, destruction, and domination. Cooperation, friendship, and even love. When strangers from vastly different backgrounds collide, the potential fallouts are infinite. Within these pages you’ll find […]
Read More ...Look Safe Appears in STOLEN
My cup runneth over today it seems. I’ve got a couple things to talk about all of a sudden, so let’s start here … I’m pretty stoked to announce that Fiction River’s Stolen, which includes my short story “Look Safe,” has now seen publication. It’s an anthology of stories that all have something to do […]
Read More ...Space: 1975
Here’s your chance to stow away on the greatest little space opera anthology since, well, the 70s! [grin] X X X X X X All right, I’ve done some vague Facebook sharing on this project over the past day or three, but since it’s getting ready to go live I can now talk a bit […]
Read More ...Midwinter Fae Available in Print!
I suppose I should take a moment to note that the Midwinter Fae (A Procession of Faeries – 2) anthology put together by Jamie Ferguson is now available in print! Given the other writers on its table of contents, I was quite proud to have my story “First Rays of New Sun” appear in its […]
Read More ...A Fun Review of “The Robin Club”
Collins spins an intriguing tale in “The Robin Club” with a little bit of every genre mixed in. Tara Grímravn of Tangent Online seems to have liked “The Robin Club” pretty well–as well as several other stories in the Superstitions edition of Fiction River it appears in. Always a good day when that happens, eh? […]
Read More ...Amazing Monster Tales #2 is Out
All, right, the truth is that Amazing Monster Tales #2 has been out for about two weeks. Here I am, though, running my classic “delay of game” cycle. And it’s a shame, really. This is a fun project being run by Jaime Ferguson and DeAnna Kippling, and filled with a great collection of writers (and […]
Read More ...The Spy Who Walked Into the Cold
If you read “The Spy Who Walked Into the Cold” you’ll understand why I say I wish it wasn’t appearing in the Fiction River: Spies anthology. Kris Rusch, the editor, introduced the piece by saying it “examines a part of the United States that most people don’t know about,” which is something I could well […]
Read More ...“Prospecting” is Published!
I’ve written SF and Fantasy, of course. Occasionally I’ll write a contemporary piece. Or a thriller. Sometimes I can branch into something that touches on darker places. But this is my first, and, to date only, piece that fits squarely in the Western genre. I wrote “Prospecting” for a themed anthology focused on “Justice,” but […]
Read More ...I Love Me Some Monster Tales
I’m totally stoked to be part of DAWN OF THE MONSTERS, which is issue one of Amazing Monster Tales. This promises to be a great series of pulpy good monster stories that … well … I’ll let their marketing blubs handle that part of the message later in this post. I’ll just say that the […]
