Not one but TWO anthologies

BJ Sikes, author1 Comment

The folks at Thinking Ink Press are releasing two of the anthologies I helped create! They are reissuing Twelve Hours Later, the first book of the Later trilogy, and they are publishing Some Time Later, the third book of the trilogy. The Later books are charity steampunk anthologies that I edited. I also contributed stories.

Some Time Later at TIP

Some Time Later: Fantastic Voyages in Alternate Worlds will be available soon through booksellers in print and e-book editions and at Clockwork Alchemy 2017. Fifty percent of the proceeds will be donated to local literacy programs.

We are happy to welcome Harry Turtledove into the treehouse!

I’m very pleased to not only be an author rubbing shoulders with a famous author but also the chief editor of the anthology.

Treehouse Writers's avatarWelcome to the Treehouse!

Thirty Days Later, the latest anthology including many Treehouse Writers, will be released on May 28th, at the Clockwork Alchemy convention in San Jose, California.
Joining this merry bunch is alt-history giant Harry Turtledove. Mr. Turtledove attended Clockwork Alchemy last year, selling books and giving presentations. We asked him if he’d be interested in contributing to the anthology and he agreed!

Well we’re in the final stretch before releasing the new anthology, so I thought I’d acknowledge the many talented authors who contributed. Plus a sneak preview at the table of contents.

We have thirty paired stories and I’m not sure how we managed to get the number to match the title but it happened. We also convinced Harry Turtledove to join us, again, not sure how, but we are delighted.

The authors of Thirty Days Later are:

Announcing Thirty Days Later

30DL Kindle cover thirty copyThirty Days Later: Steaming Forward, 30 Adventures in Time, is a new anthology that I’ve been working on for the past seven months. The anthology features authors from the Clockwork Alchemy steampunk convention in San Jose, California. Thirty Days Later is a followup to the 2015 anthology I edited, Twelve Hours Later.

I think this year’s anthology is a great read and I’m pleased to say that I contributed two stories to it, paired tales that precede the events in my upcoming novel, The Archimedean Heart.

Both books will be released at Clockwork Alchemy 2016. That’s the end of May.
