Telling Tales, Locus reviews, Portland Comic Con

A collection of brief news updates:

• My story "I Hold My Father's Paws" will be reprinted in Telling Tales, a Clarion West fundraising anthology edited by Ellen Datlow.


• In the January Locus, Gardner Dozois calls "Last Days of the Kelly Gang" "among the best in the book" and Rich Horton calls "Liaisons Galantes" "a slight but quite enjoyable piece."


• Also from Locus, online short fiction reviewer Lois Tilton calls "Liaisons Galantes" "interesting" and "quite charming."


• I will be appearing on a panel, with Erik Wecks, William Hertling, and Daniel (Robopocalypse) Wilson, at the Portland Comic Con (Feb 22-24 at the Oregon Convention Center).

That's all for now. Watch for some bigger, more exciting news from me in the next couple of weeks!
