Sale! Midnight at the Feet of the Caryatides

And the fourth of my contracts is in, so I may shriek merrily: Steve Berman accepted my story, “Midnight at the Feet of the Caryatides,” for the anthology Where Thy Dark Eye Glances: Queering Edgar Allan Poe. “Midnight at the Feet of the Caryatides” is about courage, love, and revenge at a Victorian-ish boarding school [...]
