Book Launched!

Today, May 12, 2020, is the official publication day for my new book, House of the Ancients and Other Stories, a collection of 23 short fictions (some of them very short). My publisher, Press 53, has been great to work with on this book as well as my earlier collections. Sincere thanks to Kevin Morgan Watson for bringing the book to life.

In these socially distant times, it’s not likely that I’ll be doing any in-person events anytime soon, but you may have an opportunity to see me on Zoom. In the meantime, if you read the book, I hope you enjoy it!

If you haven’t ordered your copy yet, you have lots of options:
 
Order from the publisher, Press 53. Press 53 is currently running some bundled specials, so you can get a really good deal on 5 books for $53, for example, including the new book and some of my earlier titles.
 
Order from Bookshop. Bookshop is a new online bookstore that seeks to do the same thing Amazon does, but for the benefit of independent bookstores. Of course, you can also order directly from your favorite local bookstore.
 
Order from Barnes & Noble. Your local Barnes & Noble probably doesn’t stock the book, but they should be able to get it for you, or you can order online and have it shipped.
 
Order from Amazon.com. Yep, you can get it from Amazon, too.
