I've found out a bit more about the anthology to which I am a contributor,
"UnCONventional". As I wrote earlier, it is coming out in January 2012. Below, you'll find the newly available list of contributors and the titles of their stories, gleaned from the Goodreads site. Thanks to chats via email with the other authors, I've discovered that most of the stories are humorous. I go against the trend with "Shadow Harper", which is based on folk legend and is fairly serious.
I just checked Amazon. The book hasn't appeared yet for pre-order but I'll tell you when it's listed. Here's the contributor list and updated information.
