Since mid-March, we've been laying low due to the coronavirus. I have
the good fortune of living on a spacious property where I can exercise my
Border Collie without worrying about social distancing issues. She for one
isn't complaining about the extra outdoor time.
Recent Publications
A
poem entitled "Lorelei" was
published in Polar Borealis: Magazine of Canadian Speculative Fiction,
Issue 14, April 2020:
My review of Zooscape, Issue 6, March
2020, appeared on The Future Fire's site, at the link below:
This online zine features anthropomorphic stories
with a speculative flair; the issue I reviewed included both fantasy and
science fiction entries. Worth taking a look if you enjoy this type of story.
My personal favorite was "The Adventures of WaterBear and Moss
Piglet."
My poem "No Fairy Tale World" was
included in the 2020 Rhysling Anthology, which is issued by the Science
Fiction and Fantasy Poetry Association. Work must be nominated to land in this
volume, and it's the first time one of my poems has had the distinction of
appearing in it, so I'm grateful for that.
What I’m Working On
Though I've been sending out poems through
April, I've been mainly focussed on working on in-process speculative fiction
pieces, and managed to send out several stories for consideration. Hoping
to continue that progress in May.
Also in the draft stages of writing a review
of How Rory Thorne Destroyed the
Multiverse, by K. Eason.
