Hi. Just a quick update: the anthology edited by Vince Liaguno, UNSPEAKABLE HORROR: SHADOWS FROM THE CLOSET is now available: http://astore.amazon.com/darkscrimaga-20/detail/0981863205. I've got a story in it called "The Agathas" that takes place in Croatia, where my husband and I took our honeymoon in August. Other contributing authors include Lee Thomas, Liz Morton, Maria Alexander, and Scott Nicholson.

In other news, my short story "Afterlife" received a nomination for best short story, 2008, from Dark Scribe Magazine. Winners will be announced February 2, 2009.

My third novel AUDREY'S DOOR kicks ass, and will be published in October, 2009, by HarperCollins.

I will attend, and may also take part in a panel at New York's Comic Con, February 6-8: http://www.nycomiccon.com/App/homepage.cfm?moduleid=2577&appname=100453

I'll be at Boskone February 13-15 in Boston, Massachusetts: http://www.nesfa.org/Boskone/index.html

That's it. Have a great weekend!
