Nice news about “Shadowdrop”

I’m delighted to see my novella “Shadowdrop,” from Beneath Ceaseless Skies issue 261, is showing up on various end-of-year recommended reading lists, such as at

Tangent Online, Featured Futures, and Quick Sip Reviews.

It seems that fantasy and science fiction novellas are becoming more popular as a form, and it’s exciting to be a part of that.

Thank you to everyone who’s read the story, special thanks to anyone who reviews it       (whatever you think), and happy new year to all.
