Jacob Weisman of the wonderful Tachyon Publications has picked up an excerpt from Avalon Burning for an upcoming urban-fantasy anthology edited by Joe Lansdale and Peter Beagle. The 7500-word story is called “Talking Back to the Moon,” and will be published in August 2011. No cover or word on other contributors yet (this just happened), but I will definitely keep you posted.
This story concerns Avy’s run-ins with some wild creatures near Griffith Park in the San Fernando Valley, and her conflicted relationship with the wildness in the outside world and inside her as well.
I’m excited about this, and delighted that a preview of Avalon Burning will be available.
