A Step Closer to being Unfettered

Shawn Speakman has released an author and story list for the anthology he's put together to help knock out his mountain of medical bills. The anthology is called Unfettered.

You can get all the info here.

There's a nice write up about it at Grasping for the Wind also.

My contribution? That would be a story called All the Girl's Love Michael Stein. I think it's safe to say it's like nothing else I've ever published. It's Young Adult. It's the story of a ghost cat that sets out to find a way to comfort the girl that's mourning his death. In the process, he gives her a gift that changes her life forever.
