New Worlds For Old


A fantastic thing about running a Press is the wonderful and talented people we get to meet along the way.

  1. Mike and Rita,

    How kind of you. The above is much appreciated. :)

    I'm pleased to share that "Shattered Vessels", a short story I wrote with 2015 Hugo award nominee and Jovian award winner Ms Kary English will appear in the March issue (#19) of Galaxy's Edge Magazine, which will be my 1st professional sale. A Kabbalist urban fantasy novelette will appear later in 2016 in the journal Straeon 2.

    Thank you for your continued encouragement and support.

    Respectfully,
    Bob
