A couple of new e-book anthologies are of some interest, at least to my relatives and those hoping to borrow money/scrounge free drinks from me.

First up is the e-book edition of Mike Allen's celebrated anthology Clockwork Phoenix, which won all sorts of accolades despite including my story "All the Little Gods We Are". The digital Clockwork Phoenix can be found (so far) at Amazon and in the Mythic Delirium/Weightless Books store.

The other just-published e-anthology to contain a story of mine is called Past Future Present 2011, is edited by Helen E. Davis (or should that be Helen e-Davis?), and is a great big bumper volume of sixteen -- count'em, sixteen! -- hitherto-unpublished stories by the likes of Keith Brooke, Vera Nazarian ([livejournal.com profile] norilanabooks), Mike Allen (him again), and Catherine Mintz. My own offering, so as you know what to avoid amongst all this good stuff, is a longish novelette (~10,500 words) called "The Girl Who Was Ugly"; unusually for me, it's a piece of straightishforward SF rather than fantasy or slipstream or noir or genre spaghetti or . . .


UPDATE: UK Kindlers can download Clockwork Phoenix here and Past Future Present 2011 here.

Past Future Present 2011 is not available for Kindle download in the UK :(

Have you checked

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Past-Future-Present-2011-ebook/dp/B006JPWHJW/

I'd be grateful if you could, and let me know. That's the UK page for the book, but it's almost impossible to tell from here whether or not it's allowing people to download.

Yes, that worked. Thanks!

Hurrah! I've passed the info on to the editor, who was obviously worried there might be some hitch with e-distribution through amazon.co.uk.

It's really sweet that LJ incorporates into your comments the instruction:
