Via Mia Nutick (
copperwise), in her post,
In which Mia pimps herself and others for a good cause, I learned that there is a new anthology available for a very limited time, the proceeds of which will benefit musician S.J. Tucker (
s00j), who has no health insurance and was recently hospitalized for nearly a week to the tune of tens of thousands of dollars.
ATTENTION PUH-LEASE, darlings!
Below find the press release I've been anxious to put out. I am delighted to be contributing a story to this collection, in company with some incredible and amazing writers.
Visit
satyrblade or
damiana_swan for pre-order information on this anthology. Charles de Lint, Neil Gaiman, Terri Windling...little old me...yeah, I'm very pleased about this one. And the profits go toward taking care of someone I love very much. Please pass this on to your friends who will be interested in this particular collection.
