I read through half of the second read pile for the next Simian Publishing anthology Twilight Temptations.

I had good news today. Two of the stories from Gods and Monsters received special mention in the 2007 Best Fantasy and Horror Anthology. You can see the link at http://www.amazon.com/Years-Best-Fantasy-Horror-2007/dp/0312369425

Michael Nethercott and his story The Banjo House received an honorable mention.

Gary McMahon and his story the Day of the Mask also received an honorable mention.

This is really big for a small press to be included there. Three anthologies in which I appeared were also mentioned, but none of my stories. Next year. ;)

This is good motivation to port Gods and Monsters to my new printer.

I’ve very disappointed that my copies of Triquorum Two were sent to my old address from the UK. I think they were lost in the mail at this point. I’m really looking forward to see it in print.

Abigail’s Dragon is making the rounds, but so far no strong hits. There have been a couple of requests to read the whole thing.

The LARP I’ve been playing has been going really strong. I think we have something like 55 players. We had a problem with the site, but we have an even better site now with multiple rooms, a kitchen, bathrooms, and oddly a shower.

Lisa and I started working out in a place next to her work. It helps her back and helps me lose some weight. I’m hoping to keep it up at three nights a week. I drop weight really quick when I work out.

I’ve haven’t been working on Dylan and the Dreamlands like I should have been doing. I’m starting back up today. I have an awesome outline and so it should be easy.
