A Writer’s Vanity

The following stories is slated to appear in my Dark Futures anthology from Dark Quest Books.

“Black Hole Sun” by Alethea Kontis & Kelli Dunlap
“For Restful Death I Cry” by Geoffrey Girard
“Tasting Green Grass” by Elaine Blose
“Endangered” by Robby Sparks
“Nostalgia” by Gene O’Neill
“Beautiful Girl” by Angeline Hawkes
“Father’s Flesh, Mother’s Blood” by Aliette De Bodard
“Terra Tango 3″ by James Reilly
“Love Kills” by Gill Ainsworth
“Memories of Hope City” by Maggie Jamison
“Do You Want That in Blonde, Brunette, or Auburn” by Glenn Lewis Gillette
“Marketing Proposal” by Sarah M. Harvey
“The Monastery of the Seven Hands” by Natania Barron
“A Futile Gesture Toward Truth” by Paul Jessup
“Hydraulic” by Ekaterina Sedia
“Alien Spaces” by Deb Taber

For those keeping count, that’s 16 stories, about 80,000 words. Ten stories by female authors. Six stories by male authors.

I believe the publisher’s plan is to release the book in the first half of 2010. I’m certainly excited. There are some great stories by some talented people in Dark Futures.

This isn’t the final-final ToC. There are contracts to sign. Also, this is not the order of the stories in the anthology. That hasn’t been decided yet.
