Jason Sizemore sent me a message the other day with a handy link for the purchase of Descended From Darkness, which features my 2005 World Horror Dark Fiction Award-winning story, "A Night at the Empire."
According to Jason, I receive 40% of the retail price of the anthology, if you click through and order via the above link. Once again: the link is: Descended From Darkness
Times are tough, my wallet is thin, and unemployment insurance is covering the bills (so far), but convention funds are low. If you are interested in supporting my work, please consider ordering a copy of Descended From Darkness and I promise that the proceeds will be put toward my 2009 convention schedule, where hopefully I can shake your hand and thank you in person.
