I was in four of the anthologies mentioned here, and it's sure fun to coattail on the talent of editors like you, Barb, Greg, and Paul. A few years ago I was in a fantasy antho that won a Bram Stoker Award, and even though I'm sure my story had VERY little to do with the win, it was a great feeling to be part of an honored and recognized project.<br /><br />My hat's always off to you and all anthology editors--it's a tough job.John Floydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04001712728130488485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3119105822589181967.post-22448492691298737482020-07-07T07:29:28.157-04:002020-07-07T07:29:28.157-04:00
