Listen to “Eee”, currently live on Well Told Tales

June 11, 2009 in General Topics

Swim on over to welltoldtales.com, the excellent pulp fiction podcast, and have a listen to “Eee”, which was originally published on Afterburn SF back in ’07.

Despite focusing almost all my energy on “The Tyrant Stratagem”, it’s nice to be able to get the occasional short fiction piece out there in the wild. And “Eee” has found a fine second home in editor Kevin Colligan’s podcast. Special thanks also go to the reader, Eleiece Krawiec.

Stay tuned.

Sale: “Eee”, audio reprint to “Well Told Tales”

March 7, 2009 in General Topics

So the first sale of the year is in — “Eee”, as originally seen in the september 2007 issue of Afterburn SF, has been picked up by welltoldtales.com. This is one of the darkest science fiction pieces I ever wrote, as well as one of the most “out-there” examples of my train of thought.

True story: the idea for this piece came from a discussion thread over on EscapePod.org’s discussion boards. The topic was six-word stories. Here’s the idea I posted that I decided to expand upon:

“Cybernetic dolphin. New Kingdom of EEEEEEE.”

I can’t wait to see the guys at Well Told Tales give this one the proper treatment.
