Lots of News, But Not Lots of Time

I'll skip the obligatory note about time restraints, and just cut to the chase. I have a few publications and podcasts forthcoming this year.

1. My story "Devil on the Night Train" will appear in the anthology Fantastic Trains. This is the fourth story in my Filipino Monsters series, and will feature the Filipino urban legend "Devil Cigar Man." It will be published by EDGE Science Fiction and Fantasy Publishing, and is due out on eBook in September and paperback in November.

2. "Symphony of the Night," a dark fantasy, will appear in chapbook form with exclusive illustrations by Luke Spooner. It will be published by Aurelia Leo and is due out sometime in October. It's available for pre-order now at Aurelia Leo's website.

3. My story "A Pocket of Madness" recently sold to Tales to Terrify, and will appear on their podcast sometime this year. "A Pocket of Madness" originally appeared in Digital Horror Fiction in 2018. This marks its audio debut.

4. My story "The Last Great Failing of the Light" was picked up as a reprint by Selene Quarterly, due out sometime in November 2020. It originally appeared in Myriad Lands vol. 2 (2016).

5. My story "Plastic Love" was purchased late last year by Gehenna and Hinnom Books for a chapbook line which will feature four short stories in paperback form. No news yet as to whether it will be illustrated, but I do know it's due out sometime in October of this year (2019).

In other (read: late) news, InterGalactic Medicine Show reprinted my story "Everything Mimsy," an ode to Alice in Wonderland and Filipino folklore, in its penultimate issue, #68. I'm really sad to see this publication close, but am honored to have had three stories appear in various issues throughout the years (including "The Burden of Triumph" in issue #42, and "A Mundane Encounter With a Civilized God" in issue #68). RIP, IGMS, and thanks for all you did!
