The difference between a princess and a wicked witch can be very hard to see.

I am absolutely delighted to announce that my story, "Emeralds to Emeralds, Dust to Dust," will be appearing in the anthology Oz Reimagined: New Tales from the Emerald City and Beyond, edited by John Joseph Adams and Douglas Cohen. It will be available in February 2013.

Let's be honest here. You've always wanted to see a grown-up, embittered, lesbian Dorothy living with her girlfriend (Polychrome, naturally) in the slums of the Emerald City, solving crimes with the aid of her trusty gourd Friday, Jack Pumpkinhead, haven't you? Well, now you can.

And yes, this is the story that inspired me to start working on a dark urban fantasy Oz trilogy. Because sleep is for the weak, or something.

Oz!

So exciting!

Will this be in the same universe as The Nativity of Chance or completely different? Or is that something you aren't able to answer yet, for one reason or another?

Edited to add: I know that you have Silver Slipper Blues as part of its verse, but wasn't sure if they were completely separate. Just curious!
Nope, not connected in the slightest.
