I'm glad to have a new story titled "F5" in the Autumn 2011 issue of LITnIMAGE, an excellent online journal edited by Roland Goity. This story details what it's like to be in a factory bathroom while an F5 tornado's on the loose nearby. Some of it actually happened. Some of it did not.

In addition to still being available for pre-order for $6 from Main Street Rag, The Dying Horse is now on Goodreads here. Please add it and recommend it to others if you want to be nice. If you want to be mean, add it and recommend it to others.

For the past few years I've been racking up points with my PNC accounts. After I've earned 40,000, I choose a reward--a $100 gift certificate to Amazon. Unfortunately, as of September 12, my accounts are no longer eligible to participate in the points program. So, I used the points I had to get a $75 gift certificate to Amazon, which I'll use to buy a bunch of books, even though I'm swamped as is. I'll post the haul soon.
