Excerpt from The Poisoned Cup
We're just weeks from the release of the Playing With Fire boxed set (so excited). To get you in the mood (you HAVE pre-ordered it, haven't you?), here's the prologue to "the Poisoned Cup," my modern-day retelling of the love triangle between Arthur, Guinevere, and Lancelot:
In
the end, people blamed me for the fall of Camelot and the end of the British
monarchy. As if one woman could do in a thousand days what a thousand years of
war, murder. Family feuds, and anti-royalist sentiment could not. Those who
blamed me conveniently forgot that when Arthur took the throne, he inherited a
kingdom already in disarray. The Brexit mess had weakened the economy,
fractured the United Kingdom, and left his subjects demoralized and unhappy. They
needed a scapegoat, and they chose me for the role.
It wasn’t even personal.
Royals have traditionally been a focus for
“civilian” discontent, and in many cases, understandably so. Royals were rich,
after all, and therefore had no idea what it was like to live paycheck to
paycheck or work more than one job just to be able to afford the basic necessities.
It grated on the public when a royal—usually
some dotty dowager duchess—was praised for being “hard-working” when the work
involved was mostly smiling pleasantly while listening to a boring speech about
some issue of little practical concern to anyone outside the room. After all,
no one wants to hear the extinction of the skylark when their own jobs are in
danger of disappearing even sooner.
And it didn’t help that the royals were always so
ubiquitously on display, with the press and the bloggers feverishly covering
their every move, recording their every utterance, and memorializing their
every fashion faux pas. And even then, in the face of nearly universal mockery,
it took forever for the “fascinator” fad to die. I never could understand how a
grown woman could wear something that looked like a toddler had made it out of
pipe cleaners and keep a straight face. Or those silly flat hats that are tilted
at such an acute angle that they looked like tiny alien spaceships had just
landed on the royal coif.

Grimm, Grit, and Gasoline...An anthology of Fairy Tale Retellings
I am fascinated by all the varieties of "punk," from solar punk to clock punk to atomic punk, and beyond but I'd never heard of "Decopunk," but it's helpfully defined on the site.
Just the titles of the stories are evocative One that caught my eye was "Steel Dragons of a Luminous Sky" by Brian Trent. I am a longtime fan of Brian's work and can't wait to see what he's done here.
Wendy Nikel's "Things Forgotten on the Cliffs of Avevig' is another tale I can't wait to read. Yu can preorder the book on the World Weaver Press site or at your favorite digital retailer.

Remembering Sandra Seamans
I knew Sandra Seamans, but I didn't know her. It's amazing the impact a person can have on your life when you never meet them in real life. I wish I had met her in real life because in our email exchanges and online interactions, she was warm, supportive, and encouraging. When I was first starting to write fiction she introduced me to everybody, hosting my blog by adding it to her blogroll. And when Joy Sillesen, Joanne Renaud, and I started Dark Valentine Magazine, she became a
contributor, which helped give us street cred as a fiction site and also helped us spread the word. I am really sorry that Dark Valentine is no longer archived because she wrote some great stories for us, including "Abiding Guilt," about a widower escaping from a nursing home. He misses Gloria. He misses sex. And the nurses at his facility have confiscated his phone after finding out he's been calling 1-900 numbers.
I was a daily visitor to her site My Little Corner, looking for places to send my work. I'd sometimes sent her tips when I found markets on my own that she hadn't highlighted. She always gave me a hat tip and I was always pleased because I'd been able to give her something in return for the many tips she gave me. (I sold one or two stories to markets she'd listed over the years.) I also liked reading the occasional story she posted and sought her fiction out on other sites. Here's a link to the short stories she wrote for Shotgun Honey.
