Some of you may have already seen the announcement, but my pal Carrie Ryan has sold an anthology of short stories.
From Publisher’s Marketplace:
NYT bestselling author Carrie Ryan, ed.’s FORETOLD, an anthology about prophecies and predictions featuring stories by Laini Taylor, Jen Lancaster, Meg Cabot, Richelle Mead, and Michael Grant among many others, to Krista Marino at Delacorte, for publication in Fall 2012, by Jim McCarthy at Dystel & Goderich Literary Management.
I am also in said anthology, and so is:
Heather Brewer
Lisa McMann
Kami Garcia
Margaret Stohl
Matt de la Peña
Malinda Lo
and
Saundra Mitchell
My contribution is called “Burned Bright,” and it’s about a girl and a boy and the end of the world. And if you think you know what that means, I promise you, you don’t.
So that’s fall 2012. In spring of 2012, you’ll see “Foundlings” in BRAVE NEW LOVE, and in summer of 2012, “Stray Magic” in UNDER MY HAT. All I know about this last one is the release date is August, 2012, and some of my fellow contributors include Garth Nix, Jane Yolen, Tim Pratt, Ellen Kushner, Francis Hardinge, Patricia McKillip, and Mary Rickert.
All three are stand alone short stories, set in completely different worlds.
FORETOLD will be my second antho with Meg Cabot and my fourth with Carrie, since she’s also in BRAVE NEW LOVE. UNDER MY HAT will be my second antho with Garth Nix, and my second compiled by Jonathan Strahan, who also did the Best SF&F one.
There’s also TWO more, but all the deets on those are still a secret… except: they are unicorn stories.
You’re welcome.
