Myth and Magic: Queer Fairy Tales

I’m very happy to share that I recently signed a contract for my short story “The Vain Prince” to appear in Myth and Magic: Queer Fairy Tales (Radclyffe and Stacia Seaman, eds) forthcoming from Bold Strokes Books.

The title is an anthology of retold fairy tales and legends from a queer point-of-view. Rather squarely up my alley, huh?

A select few may remember “The Vain Prince” from its first appearance in Ganymede back in 2009. The story is a bit of a mash-up of “The Frog Prince” from the Brothers Grimm and the opera “Turandot” by Giacomo Puccini. It was my first fiction publication. Sadly, Ganymede went out of print when its editor and founder John Stahle died in 2010.

I gave the story a tune-up for its republication. It’s a bit campy and definitely whimsical, and I hope that readers will enjoy it on its second run.
