New story acceptance!

Way back in October when I was Editor Guest of Honor at Arcana 45, I cranked out a brand shiny new Gothic ghost story so I'd have something to read to the nice folks who came to my reading at DreamHaven and at the con. It's called "A Splash of Crimson" and it features a governess with an active imagination and a perhaps injudicious fondness for her deceased mistress.  Today, I'm very pleased to announce that editor Kate Laity has accepted it for the Fox Spirit Books anthology Respectable Horror, thereby finally making a Respectable Horror Author of me! <g> At any rate, the line up looks great and I thrilled to be a part of it. Not sure of the release date but I'll pass it along when I find out.
