There has been a good deal of feedback regarding "A Season of Broken Dolls" (Sirenia Digest #15), which pleases me. It also pleases me to announce that the story will be appearing in an upcoming issue of the free online version of Subterranean Magazine. I do not yet know just when, but quite soon, I think.

It was sometime after four before I finally got to sleep. "What a dorky evening," says Spooky.
Anyway, I must now go polish the Locus article one last time and attend to other authorial tasks.
