Patreon short story: ‘Krampusnacht.’

I am plugging the Patreon again this month — I will pretty much be doing that every month until I die, in fact — and since I used “Krampusnacht” as a sample there I thought I’d put it up here, too.  I flatter myself that it’s a Christmas story that looks for new and exciting cliches, instead of revisiting all the old ones. Enjoy!

Just mailed out the contract for the short story I sold.

God willing and disaster doesn’t strike, the anthology that my story’s in will be out in March 2018.  And damned if I can think of a way that it wouldn’t count, either. It’s a real book from a real publisher and they’re paying me actual money and I only signed over pretty standard first-use rights while retaining ownership of the story itself.  This shi… stuff’s legit.

Oof. I need to go eat a sandwich.

My Patreon short story: ‘Processing Duty.’

I think of “Processing Duty” as my little endorsement of the idea that you can get used to anything, really. Which is kind of funny, considering that my favorite horror fiction is Lovecraftian, which more or less explicitly denies that you can.  I guess I just have a complicated worldview… or possibly one that I don’t examine too closely for internal consistency.
