Leife and I have worked for several months to cull the list of fantastic submissions down to nineteen of our favourites for A Hand of Knaves. There are some really fantastic stories in our bucket and it was great to finally put the author's names to their writing (as the reading for CSFG anthologies is done blind).
I've been abroad of late and while I was away the CSFG released the list of stories and authors so I'd like to belatedly congratulate the successful writers, and let those who didn't make the cut know that we had a wealth of excellent stories to choose from so don't be too disappointed.
Our list of authors/stories is as follows:
Eugen Bacon, Ace Zone
Amy Brown, A Tale Of The Marriage Of Gawain
David Coleman, Immortal, Coiled
Tom Dullemond, The Killblaine Legacy
Maureen Flynn, Gardening Through the Danse Macabre
Rebecca Fraser, The Pedlar
Isobel Johnstone, The Apothecary’s Apprentice
Grace Maslin, A Question Of Identity
Chris McGrane, Trojan Thoughts
Claire McKenna, The One Who Walks The Permanent Way
Cassandra Page, The Best Heist Yet
CH Pearce, The Last Magicians of Sad Hill
Simon Petrie & Edwina Harvey, On the Consequences of Clinically-Inhibited Maturation in the Common Sydney Octopus
Louise Pieper, A Widow’s Worth
Robert Porteous, A Fair Wind Off Baracoa
Charlotte Sophia, Stardust
HK Stubbs, Lost Property
David Versace, A Moment’s Peace
Angus Yeates, Anchor Point
While I was away I was editing on the road and with Leife pushing me (in the nicest way) from Australia we have completed first round edits. I'm clearly biased but I also feel completely confident in saying that A Hand of Knaves will be an excellent anthology and I'm pretty sure I speak for both of us when I say we can't wait to share these tales of space piracy, magical slight of hand, necromancy, dangerous school girls, Ned Kelly-esque legends, assassins-in-training, vengeful hackers and so much more...
