Mood: sick
Music: Meg Davis, "Captain Jack and the Mermaid."

They say little girls fall in love with their fathers; well, my father was a carnie...

...with a traveling show.

I am pleased to announce that my story, "Daughter of the Midway, the Mermaid, and the Open, Lonely Sea," will be appearing in the anthology Carniepunk. It will be available in July 2013.

This is a book with a great lineup of authors, including my dearly beloved Rachel Caine, without whom I would probably drink less in San Diego, and Nicole Peeler, who writes for the same publishing house I do (Orbit), yet whom I have managed never to meet. So this should be a lot of fun!

My story is about the Campbell Family Carnival (and if that name seems familiar to you, well, there's probably a reason for that). It's about mermaids, and memories, and knowing where you belong, even if you don't know how you got there. I love it quite a lot. I can't wait for you to have the opportunity to read it.

Whee!
