Queen Victoria's Book of Spells
If any of you follow me on Twitter or Facebook, and have happened to open your browsers when I was posting, over the past month or so, you'll have heard me whinging mightily about a certain story that refused to Come Right. Well, it did, finally, and I handed it in, and it was bought, and will appear in Ellen Datlow and Terri Windling's anthology Queen Victoria's Book of Spells.
Here is the TOC. As you can see, it's a star-studded cast. Kathe Koja! Dora Goss! Jeffrey Ford! Cat Valente! Elizabeth Wein! Genevieve Valentine! Veronica Schanoes! Greg Maguire! Oh, just EVERYBODY!
Tor hasn't announced a pub date as yet. But believe me, I'll let you know as soon as I do. I SOOOOO can't wait to read this.
