Yesterday, my contributors copies of The Weird Wild West came in. (They should have come sooner, but apparently there was some trouble, for which I suspect I should blame Canada Post; in any case, I would like to say that everyone at eSpec Books was absolutely lovely to deal with, and thank them all.)
I’m in a book. I’m in a book with an ISBN, and people said nice things about my story. One of the editors had a lovely reaction to it, and Amazing Stories called it a strong start to the anthology, and overall I am hugely pleased.
And the art is beautiful. I can’t take a good picture of any of the full-page pieces (and I suspect that might not be cool, in any case), but look at my extremely clumsy picture of that beautiful story header. Look. <3
Anyway, it’s on Amazon; you can get it starting at $5 for the ebook, or in trade paperback. And there’s a lovely page at the front with all the author’s names, and space for signatures; I’m planning to take one of my copies to cons, and get as many as I can.
So glad they finally got there! And definitely glad you’re happy with it! It was a really good story 🙂 And at the Balticon Book Launch we’ll have pirate-themed prizes in the raffle in honor of it 🙂
Thank you again. It’s a beautiful book, and I’m so pleased to see my story in the company of all the other works in the book. <3 (I wish I could be at the launch! I hope it goes smashingly well.)
Thank you. We’re so happy with how it turned out. We promise to take loads of pictures at the launch. Wish you could be there as well.
