UPDATE: DERELICT is now available for order via Trade Paperback and Kindle!
It’s now become official – my short story “Playing Possum” is featured in the ZNB anthology DERELICT. And I’m intensely proud of this for one really geeky reason. Check out the cover.
That’s right: I’m in a book with a SKELETAL ASTRONAUT on the cover! I mean, who hasn’t grown up with images like this:
And now, I’m part of this great tradition.
This is my fourth appearance in an anthology recently. Fifth if you include my A.J. Harris nom de plume. So, I’m re-posting an answer to a common question:
“How can I get your stories?” or “What’s the best way to support you?”
So, lets take this in turn:
“How can I get your stories?”
Right now, ZNB is the only source for the latest anthology. But you can find past ones on Amazon or you can order them through your favorite bookseller. I’ve provided links below but please, wherever you can, rate the book after reading it.
If you can’t do so on Amazon, go to Goodreads or any book review page.
PORTALS: Kindle, Ebook edition, limited Kickstarter mass-market paperback, trade paperback edition.
THE DEATH OF ALL THINGS: Trade Paperback, Kindle, Nook, Kickstarter Edition (limited)
ALIEN ARTIFACTS : Trade Paperback,
Kindle, Nook, Kickstarter Edition (limited).
And while you’re at it, if you are admiring some of the absolutely amazing artwork here, you can get the covers as prints! All three covers are by the amazing Justin Adams. You can get art prints. You can find the cover for DERELICT, PORTALS, THE DEATH OF ALL THINGS, and ALIEN ARTIFACTS right on the ZNB page, along with the other amazing work for anthologies which, alas, do not feature my writing.
Oh, and for those who are interested, my story under the name A.J. Harris in the STRANDED anthology is still available. Watching all the authors come together to help write the back copy and log-lines for their stories is a cherished memory.
“What’s the best way to support you?”
Buy, Review, and Recommend. Buy is the easy concept. I do get a cut of every copy sold. Review intimidates folks but don’t worry – even just adding in some stars on Amazon or Goodreads will help. If we get 50 reviews on an anthology, Amazon’s algorithms (all hail the algorithm) will start recommending the book to others. And, one star reviews count to that as well. Feel free to slag off on my stories, and tell your friends that the best way to ‘own the libs’ is to buy a copy, burn it, and then give it a one star rating on Amazon.
Last, but not least, recommend. If you actually like the work put in by all the authors in the anthology, recommend it to at least two new folks. Keep the cycle going, and we thank you for your support.
