"Discount Noir" ~ Short Mystery Anthology

I just learned some fabulous news. Agent Stacia Decker of the Donald Maass Literary Agency has arranged for Untreed Reads to be the e-publisher of a new short mystery anthology tentatively titled, Discount Noir. According to Untreed Reads, the anthology consists of "super short/flash murder and mayhem centered around a very Wal-Mart/Target-esque backdrop."

The anthology, edited by Patricia Abbott and Steve Weddle, contains works by:

Patricia Abbott, Sophie Littlefield, Kieran Shea, Chad Eagleton, Ed Gorman, Cormac Brown, Fleur Bradley, Alan Griffiths, Laura Benedict, Garnett Elliot, Eric Beetner, Jack Bates, Bill Crider, Lauren Eaton, John DuMond, John McFetridge, Toni McGee Causey, Jeff Vande Zande, James Reasoner, Kyle Minor, Randy Rohn, Todd Mason, Byron Quertermous, Sandra Scoppettone, Stephen D. Rogers, Steve Weddle, Evan Lewis, Daniel B. O’Shea, Sandra Seamans, Albert Tucher, Donna Moore, John Weagly, Keith Rawson, Gerald So, Dave Zeltserman, Dorte Hummelshoj Jakobsen, Jay Stringer, Anne Frasier, Kathleen A. Ryan, Eric Peterson, Chris Grabenstein and J.T. Ellison.

Discount Noir should be released in late September or early October. I will keep you posted when I learn more.

I am thrilled to be in the company of these authors in Discount Noir. Many thanks to Stacia Decker, Patricia Abbott, and Steve Weddle, for their efforts in this endeavor.
