Oops, nearly forgot!

Michnight Echo Issue 1 is now available, and features a cavalcade of stories, including my own "Piggies", which the more astute amongst you might recognise as an edited version of one of my Tuesday's Ten Minute Tales. I miss doing them. Sigh. :(

Also, I'm eleven hours into NaNoWriMo, and haven't yet written a single word, or even had an idea what to write. And probably won't have time to do anything about it today. Ah well, that was easy! Maybe my NaNoWriMo should stand for National Not Writing Month! I think that'd be a bigger challenge for some people I know. Yes, I'm looking at you, azhure!

Here's the official release statement from theAHWA...

The AHWA is extremely proud to announce the publication of the
inaugural issue of Midnight Echo: The Magazine of the Australian
Horror Writers Association.

Brendan Duffy
Andrew Macrae
Stephen Studach

We're also excited to include a new short story from UK writer and
World Fantasy nominee, Robert Shearman.
