Fathoms in the Earth: an Air and Nothingness Press anthology

I am SO EXCITED to announce this! Soon releasing is the FATHOMS IN THE EARTH anthology, published by Air & Nothingness Press.

AANP books are SO BEAUTIFUL, heavy with fine paper and thoughtful covers. This anthology comes with interior color plates and 12 double-sided postcards–one for each story title!

This one is a limited run of 200, so it’s probably best to order soon if you want one.

I have a story in it, called “The Book of Games.” For my archetypes (which you’ll read about in the following paragraphs), I chose to play with:

Maid/Familiar/Monster.

I particularly enjoyed researching Naples, and re-spinning characters from The Tempest from a, you know, 21st century, feminist, post-colonial viewpoint.

(I realize that the “post-colonial” part is an ongoing project; and may we all contribute to and live to see widespread reparations to those we have harmed.)

About this book, by editor/publisher Todd Sanders:

“The Tempest entered the consciousness of Western Civilization with themes of magic, betrayal, revenge, and family. It is a singular work ripe for reinterpretation with archetypal characters.

This collection of 24 stories, with titles taken from the film Prospero’s Books by Peter Greenaway, explores these five fundamental characters and their interactions, placing them in new contexts, and inventing new narratives for their relationships.”
