Fanfare! Black Coffee

[Patricia D]

Now Death Will Us Part, a nasty story of undying love, is one of 23 short stories in Black Coffee, a collection of mystery noir which was released last week. This is my first short story to be included in an anthology.

Now that must be a great feeling!! Many congratulations! May I ask, was your story spotted by a compiler, or was there a call for anthology submissions which you responded to?

I responded to a call for submissions

 

[Peggy Lou]

Congratulations. May this be the first of many.

 

[James Marinero]

Terrific (in the nicest sense)!

 

[Robinne Weiss]

Congratulations!

 

[Nicole Wilson]

Congrats!!

 

[Katie-Ellen]

Excellent! Sounds as if undying love very nastily requires something or someone else to do the dying.

 

[AgentPete]

Nice one, Pat!

You got there on merit then. Some anthologies I have seen, that were not based on a submissions call, show a suspiciously close relationship between editor and authors ... e.g. same creative writing course, or same geographical location, or overlap in employment, etc. Am I cynical? Er -- yes.

Have to admit at least one of the editors and I both live in the Bay Area but we've not met, in person, yet. The call for submissions went out through Sisters in Crime, an organization I heartily recommend to other mystery writers - female or otherwise. There are now "brothers" in the organization, too.
