Two weeks to Unikrja
Available for sale in just TWO WEEKS! Hurrah! I will be scheduling a reading at East Line Books in late April or early May. Whoo hoo! All right, no time to be giddy. Loads to do before heading to New Orleans at dawn tomorrow.
Write Here @ Arts Center
Yesterday was a blustery day but on the agenda was Write Here, a panel on writing resources in the Capital Region hosted at the Arts Center of the Capital Region and co-hosted by the Hudson Valley Writers Guild and the New York State Writers Institute. It was a chance to get together with folks and…
Not a Joke!
Proof copy! Thanks for bringing it down to my office, Gene. There is a least one little fix to be done, but it will be available for purchase within a week (yes, it will be on Amazon)! Hurrah!
Publication: Kantele
As I headed out the door to the office this afternoon, I found the premiere issue of Kippis in the mailbox. It features my story “Kantele” which is from the forthcoming (I swear!) collection, Unikirja. I also finally got confirmation that I have been accepted for the Angela Carter conference, so very pleased with that…
Reprint: Palakainen
My short story “Palakainen,” from the forthcoming (very soon!) collection Unikirja, has been reprinted in the latest Mythic Passages. I LOVE the image Brenda put with it! Amazing and perfectly apt. This story is based on the murder ballad from The Kanteletar, so it’s a touch gruesome — be prepared.
A Slight Hitch
My reading at East Line Books will have to be postponed — Unikirja won’t be available as early as we’d hoped, so it will have to be scheduled for some time in November. I’ll let you know as soon as I know. I will still be at Albacon (or All-Bacon, as some people have suggested…
Upcoming Reading
The lovely Robyn Ringler has asked me to read at her store, East Line Books, on October 18th. I’ll be there from about 1-4 pm and reading at 2pm. If all goes well, this will be the launch of Unikirja, the long awaited (by me anyway) collection of short stories based on Finnish folklore and…
Unna ja Nuuk
Coming to Real Art Ways in Hartford, Connecticut on August 16th & 17th at 1.30pm: the Finnish film Unna ja Nuuk, which I simply have to see! Not only for the Finnish angle, but it overlaps with so much that I am writing now that I can hardly believe it. It’s been making the rounds…
Publication: Palakainen
Almost forgot! While I was gone the issue of New World Finn with my short story “Palakainen” arrived. This is another of the Unikirja stories. I am hoping to complete the collection (at last!) this summer (along with the Anglo-Saxon project).
