The cover for the book "Things I Never Said"

The Cover! For now.

Hey, Hi! Hello! Listen, I know it’s been a while. But don’t worry, there’s a new story already slated for Monday, and another in the works for next Monday as well. Monday Stories isn’t abandoned. So that’s the good news.

And now the better news. I’m pleased and excited to announce a new short fiction anthology in the works, written by yours truly. Coming to leanpub this February (probably), get ready to read the Things I Never Said.

This book is a work of short fiction, essays, and even a novella based on the Angel Liz stories on this site. The selections in this book will be some of the best things I’ve written in over ten years of blogging and writing short fiction, as well as new stories and snippets from someĀ of my apparently perpetually upcoming novels.

The plan for Things I Never Said is to have the book grow over the course of 2017. New stories that have never been published anywhere will be added, as will refined and updated versions of stories you’ve read on this site and essays or stories from other blogs and sites I’ve worked on over the years. If you buy the book when it comes out it’ll be shorter (and cheaper) than if you buy it in December of 2017, but every few weeks you’ll get an email telling you about the new stories or essays that have been added.

As always, your questions, comments and critiques are not just welcome but eagerly anticipated. I can’t wait to share with you all the Things I Never Said
