Come and get it while it's hot! The Edge of Propinquity is one of my favorite online magazines, featuring a monthly mix of ongoing, or "universe" stories—sort of like the classic old movie serials of the 1940s and 1950s, only without quite as many Rocketman cameos—and one-off guest stories, showing you the freaky side of the fictional world. I was a guest author for TEoP in 2008, with a gory little story called "Let's Pretend." Feeling the sting of my long absence, I went crawling back to their door, and was rewarded with the chance to be a guest in their home once more.
Ladies and gentlemen, my story for the November 2009 issue of The Edge of Propinquity:
This is me enjoying the glories of being a horror girl, pure and simple. It's dark, it's squishy, and it makes me very happy to be able to get it out there and share it with the world. Blood stains and all.
Ok...you're getting me interested in horror. I'm 52 years old and no one had yet succeeded in getting me interested in horror.
I think what I'm liking best about your writing is that you write so well in so many different voices. Your pacing in the short stories is such that you drop hints at various places that make me say, "Ah. Really? Now I want to know what's going to happen next. How's she going to resolve this?"
I'm really excited about Feed (at least in part because it's still far enough out that I'm not terrified of it yet). It's going to be awesome. Assuming it doesn't kill me.

I am so looking forward to _Feed_.
