Just finished a new short story. Can't say much about it right now, because the anthology is in stealth project mode pending the publisher's announcement. The good news is that the finished product should be out fairly quickly.
Apart from that, I'll just say that the story is called "Incarnadine." Imaginative port of embarkation? I had the idea that I'd write "Macbeth" in five days, masquerading as a small-town noir. Yep. In about 3,000 words, too. There's a bucketful of hubris for you.
Anyway, I gave up on the whole Shakespearean thing fairly quickly... at least in a literal sense.
But I did keep the blood.
There's plenty of that.
Stay tuned.
