"The True Darkness"

A new short story of mine, "The True Darkness," is now up at the Web site of the magazine World Literature Today, as part of a special science fiction issue edited by Christopher McKitterick. You can read it here.

UPDATE: The contributors' page for this special issue is up here.

A Reprint...

...of my 1992 story about Mongols and Mohawks, "The Sleeping Serpent," has been reprinted in The Mammoth Book of Alternate Histories, which can be bought in the US here and at other book sellers. A short review of the anthology appeared in the Financial Times, which shows that I am in really great company.

News About Polyphony 7

I've written about this before, but Wheatland Press has announced that Polyphony 7 will be on sale on or about July 1, 2010. Interested readers can order this anthology here, and can get all the earlier volumes at a special sale price.

"Mindband"

My new novella, "Mindband," is now out in Asimov's SF Magazine.

A Note to Readers

For a few days now, readers have been unable to buy my two Tor novels, Earthseed and Farseed, directly from Amazon. Why? For a beautifully written answer to that question, in case you have been out of touch with the news, John Scalzi provides an eloquent explanation here. In the meantime, I urge my readers to purchase my books from Powell's, Barnes & Noble, or your local independent bookstore, which you can locate using Indiebound's handy online tool here. (H/T to John Scalzi for the suggestions.)

UPDATE: WaPo's Steven Pearlstein weighs in.

UPDATE TWO: You can also buy a number of my books, in electronic and print editions, from E-Reads, here.

UPDATE THREE: The Buy button at Amazon for my Tor books has been restored.
