I was browsing through the Toronto Star on Saturday and my attention was caught by the familiar-looking face to the right: William Shatner. Looked closer at the so-called "appointment" (click on the image to see the full clipping) and realized it was an advertisement for All-Bran. Pretty amusing, once I got over the bizarre first impression....

Anyway, I visited our old place on the weekend to check for mail, and found a priority mail delivery from Tekno Books with page proofs for a short story I co-wrote with Michelle Sagara West several years ago. Looks like DAW's publishing the anthology after all, yay! It's called Fairy Tails, and will be coming out in September. In case you haven't guessed already from the title, the common theme involves cats and fairy tales. Ironic, really, since both Michelle and I are allergic to cats.

Other authors in the anthology include Charles de Lint, Alan Dean Foster, Elizabeth Ann Scarborough, Josepha Sherman, Jody Lynn Nye and Andre Norton. I'm sure Michelle's jaded about this by now, having published a zillion short stories already, but I'm pretty darned thrilled.

18 more days until we get possession of our new house. Jeff and I have decided we're going to stay over the first night even though we aren't officially moving in until after renovations are finished; we're going to bring sleeping bags and stay in an empty house. OUR empty house.

Are we excited? Ok, maybe just a tad. :-)
