Published.

Okay, I've been trying to keep this under wraps until I was sure it was going to happen, but today seems like a good day to make the announcement:

I have a book of short stories coming out very shortly. Here's the cover.

I should have copies available for purchase at Norwescon, and you'll be able to order it directly from the publisher on-line soon, as well. I'll post ordering information when I have it. Cover price is $14.95, trade paperback, 160 pages. Tell all your friends, won't you?

Love you anyways!

Almost.


But not quite.



I know you too well by now. Too bad, though.

I figured I'd just order a copy from Neil Gaiman's site.

I think the smart money is on this being a double-inverse-reverse prank. That is, the book has been in the works for a while, but you delayed posting about it until the 1st, knowing that you are a legendary trickster and would not be believed, only to actually produce the books at Norwescon. Ergo the real joke is that this is no joke. Am I right or am I right?

Quite possibly.

Why do you think I've been waiting for a call back from the publisher on the back of that book cover since five minutes after posting my initial response? ;)

I had my doubts

Considering I didn't see an ISBN on the cover mock-up.

It'd be nice if were true, though.

*snerk!!!*

Well all I can say is come enjoy the reading on Friday night at Norwescon is the MoD Suite.

Nice April fools gag this year!

Hopefully it will come true soon though!
