Neb Prelim Ballot!


Good news for my first novel, Counting Heads. It's made the preliminary ballot for the Nebula Award.

The photo above is my brother, Mark, dressed up at Holloween as the KFC Colonel. Looks like he's counting hands.

Story collection is coming along


Subterranean Press is putting the finishing touches on my collection to be released in April. Here's what the cover is looking like at this stage. Illustrator is Mark A. Nelson. You can pre-order on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and quality bookstores everywhere.
