Free SF, Fantasy and Horror Fiction for 4/2/2013
Welp… this post is all about me, pretty much. Kaleidotrope is out with Spring 2013, which includes my historical fantasy, “Journey to the Highlands of Papua: XII. The Upper Tagarree and the King of the Jews”. As my cover artist tells me, I don’t seem to believe in short titles. And, for whatever reason, Amazon has picked now as the time to make one of my related short stories from After The Fires Went Out: Coyote free: “The Bones of Texas City”. Oh, and some other writers wrote some stuff or whatever.
What’s special about today’s free fiction?
