Under the Rose -- ToC

[realthog]

And, no, I'm not talking about a lotusvine-like adventure under the ceiling-rose, but about the new anthology edited by Dave Hutchinson (hutch0) that Norilana Books (norilanabooks) will be publishing in October.

Hmm, you get to close the anthology -- interesting...

I'm not familiar enough with any of the other writers to judge by name; but, going by title alone, "The Tale of a More Ancient, Ancient Mariner" sounds in particular like a story I'd like to read.

"Hmm, you get to close the anthology -- interesting..."

At a guess, it's because mine is by a fair margin the longest story in the book.

I had to put it somewhere...

"I had to put it somewhere..."

You're just sort of hoping no one'll get that far, eh?

I was thinking if I put it in the middle of the book nobody would be able to read any further... ;-)

Because they'd have been so busy plaguing Directory Inquiries for the Nobel Committee's phone number, you mean?
