Caretaker Poinciana to Be Published

I am happy to say that my story submitted to the "Space Bats" contest, Caretaker Poinciana, was accepted to be published in After Oil 4: The Future's Distant Shores. It will be my second published story.

In a few days, I will remove the original Caretaker Poinciana post, so anyone wishing to read it thenceforth will have to buy the book. I know; I'm so mean.

Congrats also to all the other winners. I did not read all of the submitted stories, but my favorites of the ones I did read all made it in.

The Raven (Abridged Version)

There once was a spooky old bird
That quoth a particular word
Dude opened the door
Thought it was Lenore
But it's just a raven, ya nerd

Caretaker Poinciana

The story that formerly appeared here, "Caretaker Poinciana", has been accepted for publication in the upcoming anthology After Oil 4: The Future's Far Shores. More info about that at this link (scroll down towards the end of the post):

All the stories in this anthology are set at least a thousand years into a future where fossil fuels are no longer an option to support our modern industrial society. I have read some of the other stories that will be included, and they are really good. I am excited to be a part of it!

I encourage anyone interested in reading my story to buy the book. I will post a link to it on this blog once it becomes available.
