Have you heard enough of my sales pitches yet? Yes? Too bad, because my contributor’s copies of Copeland Valley Sampler arrived in the mail yesterday. Sufficed to say, I’m pleased with the final product. Fresh from the Copeland Valley Press and Civic Society, this weird and wonderful anthology showcases short stories from some names you might know (such as the distinguished Misters Pauley III, Revert, Cook and Krall), some others you might not, and a whole lot of stories you won’t find anywhere else. It features two of my flash fiction pieces, In Case of Armageddon and Single Singularity. Also, I think I’m the only girl in the book (well, biologically speaking, anyway), which makes it a special privilege to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with such a truly lovely bunch of weirdos.
Interested? You should be.
The Three Stooges meeting William S. Burroughs…in the wild west! A man in love with his apartment! An in-depth and pathological analysis of Driller Killer! Satanic Panic…’80s style! Skater haircuts and slap bracelets! And much, much more! This collection defies genre labels and provides a wild ride through the eccentric world of COPELAND VALLEY, a place you will never, ever want to leave.
The Sampler is on sale now at Amazon and Barnes & Noble. It’s only $8.95. That’s like, a cup of coffee at Starbucks, so go buy a copy instead. You’ll feel better. (Except for that strange tingling sensation, but you’ll get used to that.)
