From Publisher's Marketplace:
Fiction: Sci-Fi/Fantasy: CARNIEPUNK, an anthology which combines the carnival setting and the world of urban fantasy, a place of deception, where monsters wait silently in the dark, featuring short stories by authors Rachel Caine, Jennifer Estep, Seanan McGuire, Rob Thurman, Delilah Dawson, Kelly Gay, Kevin Hearne, Mark Henry, Hillary Jacques, Jackie Kessler, Kelly Meding, Allison Pang, Nicole Peeler and Jaye Wells, to Adam Wilson at Pocket, for publication in August 2013, by Suzie Townsend at New Leaf Literary & Media.
I'm so excited to be part of this anthology with so many other amazing authors. And the concept was a lot of fun to work with. My story is called "Freak House" and is set in a completely new world, unrelated to my Dreg City and MetaWars books.
This is the story I pitched (and the final product was pretty spot-on):
Sheltered and raised by her gypsy
mother, Shiloh Harrison has never explored the djinn heritage of her absentee
father—until she learns he's been captured by a man whose underground
paranormal freak show is the latest rage among the rich and elite. Determined to embrace her djinn half and to prove
herself to her gypsy Clan, Shiloh enlists the aid of a US Marshal on the verge
of retiring and a lone werewolf with no Pack loyalties to help free her father
and the other imprisoned Paras from the nightmare of this traveling Freak
House.
The anthology is coming out in August 2013 from Pocket. I'll keep y'all updated as I learn more!
