Got a hankerin' for a western, pardner? Read "Leave the Stone" and other stories in The Big Adios Western Digest. If you don't, you may be a yella-bellied Yankee or a no-good varmit.

"Cat Tail" by Bert Lowe (hey, that's ME!) has been accepted by Ember: A Journal of Luminous Things

I'm very pleased to announce that my middle grade story, "Cat Tail," has been accepted by Ember: A Journal of Luminous Things. This marks my first official children's story sale and the first time I will be published under my pen name, Bert Lowe.

Looks like I'll need to add some content to my Bert Lowe website. :-D

And for no particular reason, I'll also mention that Ember is currently running a Kickstarter campaign

Big yay!

I received a number of emails and comments telling me how much people liked my story, some even saying it was the best Daily Science Fiction story they'd ever read. My story has yet to be reviewed by any of the major review sites, so you'll have to take my word that it's pretty darn good.

I'm in Penumbra's "spotlight"

Penumbra is doing follow up interviews with some of its past authors and I just noticed that my own "spotlight" popped up recently. It offers a bit of insight about my writing process and what I've been up to lately.

"Twenty Parsecs East of the Earth Bypass, Closed on Sundays" will appear in Fireside Magazine.

Now that the cone of silence has been lifted, I can announce that my humorous, flash length story, "Twenty Parsecs East of the Earth Bypass, Closed on Sundays," will appear in Fireside Magazine. This is my ninth pro sale and twenty-eighth sale overall. Approaching big round numbers is cool.
