Best of the Web 2010

Dzanc Books has announced the selections for Best of the Web 2010 and I'm excited my story When A Furnace Is All That Remains is among the selections. Thanks to Necessary Fiction editor Steve Himmer for publishing the story, and to Best of the Web series editor Matt Bell and this year's editor Katy Fish for all their great work assembling this year's anthology and all the work they do to promote online literature. Congratulations also to the four STORYGLOSSIA contributors who also have stories selected for Best of the Web 2010:

Ravi Mangla - Arggh Luxury Cruises: An Authentic Pirate Adventure

Angi Becker Stevens - Ghosts and Monsters

Anne Valente - To A Place Where We Take Flight

Angela Woodward - A Companion Text to Modernity and Self Identity

Taking Requests for Short Story Month

During May I'll once again be joining Dan Wickett of the Emerging Writers Network and Dzanc Books in celebrating Short Story Month. Dan has some exciting things planned, which I'll be participating in, but I'll also be writing here about stories and story collections.

I'm taking requests, so if there is a story or a story collection that you'd particularly like me to write about, post your request as a comment.
