Short story news — Space Squid and Edge of Propinquity

I have two stories out this month. Space Squid published “The Night of Their Conversion,” and Edge of Propinquity has posted “Lonely Cries the Winter Wind” in their Guest Quarters section.

Please go have a look. You can find Space Squid at various bookstores in Austin. It’s free, so pick up a copy. And psst: Space Squid editors — you need to update your site.

By the way, I completely forgot to write about the Space Squid release party at Armadillocon, held at a disreputable sports bar up the street from the con. They held another writing improv contest, which I could see become a semi-annual tradition, and the current squid cover girl was there to sign copies. I am not a great off the cuff writer (to say the least), but Paige Roberts totally rocks at it.

And the current issue has Matthew Bey’s squid-homage to the Michelle and Barack Obama New Yorker cover, and that is worth the issue price alone. Yes, I know it’s free. Just pick one up.

But first read the Edge of Propinquity site, because it’s really neat.
