Fantasy Tales is coming along nicely
Work is progressing on my next collection, Fantasy Tales.
Georgia Atkin is returning as my editor and A.F Stewart is working on designs and book production.
It’s stories from urban fantasies to magic realism, and an LGBTI sword and sorcery story. It will be poems to flash fiction to short stories, and the S&S story? I’m aiming for a novella. Story Kernels will return as I share tidbits of the creation of each offer. And as always, a lot of diversity and LGBTI content. :)
The majority of the items are being turned in for editing in June.
I am working on upgrading a short story to a novella. My wonderful beta readers confirmed it for me . . . I need more space to do the story justice and I need to fix things to make it a stronger story. Plus fixing those squirrely issues with line editing and clarity (not to mention make my plot stronger) will make my editor’s job easier. The ultimate goal is making that story better.
Only Deities Need Apply and The Beat of A Different Drone will be reprinted in this collection. Pretty much everything else will be new content!
I am opening pre-ordering early!
Fantasy Tales is aiming to be about triple the size of Dark Flashes. I’m fundraising for production costs including A.F Stewart’s great cover design and Georgia Atkin’s return as my editor.
And we all know costs are going up by the minute. The sooner I can get the book and extras in hand, the lower the book production price.
Anyone wanting to pre-order now can do so. I muchly appreciate that as an independent Canadian author.

Family Business
Squib spends a lot of time in the Line-for-Basics. Ill and scrabbling for more resources beyond what they could earn this week, Squib has to find a better way. A lot of ways exist to get ahead living in The Towers. It beats the harder scrabble for a safe place to live outside the protected dome. The high ranking citizens of The Towers have figured it out. Just surviving on the basics for food and meds isn’t enough. Time for Squib to crack the code.
Family Business is a stand alone dystopian short story about the character of Squib from my Recycle Series.
It's an origin story that takes place in the early years of The Towers.
What would you give up to get ahead in a resource scarce society?
Family Business is now included in Dark Flashes!
