Four Heart Review for “Myths Untold: Faery” from Love Bytes

May 13, 2016 by scott

Just in – a great four heart review from Love Bytes: – here’s what they said about the anthology, and my story, “Through the Veil”. Also, a guest post by me about researching the story: This anthology was very enjoyable… The last story, Through the Veil, was an action packed adventure with faeries, demons, and many other magical creatures. The main character, Tyler, was a transman who was in the processes of transitioning, but still had not received surgery. There was so much going on in this story that I was initially a bit lost. However, I loved the romantic … Read more

Two Great Reviews for Myths Untold: Faery

May 4, 2016 by scott

Just in – Two new reviews of “Myths Untold: Faery”. First, a four star review from Hearts on Fire: Very well written stories and as this is book one, the stories are left with cliff hangers – so for those who don’t like those types of endings, you may want to wait until book two comes out! I’d say The Pwcca and the Persian Boy and The Changeling are my favorite stories from this collection, they both had an element of mystery and new adventures to them that appealed to me and I really wanted to keep going with both … Read more

No matter what flavor of faery you usually prefer, you’ll fall in love with every incarnation in this anthology. … … Read more

Guest Post for “Myths Untold: Faery” at The Purple Rose Tea House

April 22, 2016 by scott

Charlie Cochet hosts The Purple Rose Tea House – a guest post by August Li on reading and writing fantasy characters: Part of the reason fantasy characters are fun to read and write about—at least for me—is their otherness. By that I mean the traits that set them apart from humans. How they’re fundamentally different from us. The most obvious distinctions are often physical: he has silver hair; he has purple eyes; he has a tail. Exploring the aesthetics is certainly interesting. Probably because of growing up on videogames, comics, manga, and anime, I’ve always been drawn to characters with unusual … Read more

I wrote a novel in my early twenties, and sent it out to ten publishers. I was sure it would be snapped up and my career as a writer would be assured. A month went by, then two, and … Read more

BA Tortuga hosts a great guest post for Myths Untold: Faery by Skye Hegyes – where she talks about going Beyond Faery: I’ll be the first to admit that I’m not really a fairy fan.

I just didn’t know I’d ever get a chance to do so with other great authors. When Scott asked me to join him, Gus and Brandon in writing this anthology, I was thrilled. That doesn’t mean I knew what I was doing. I had … Read more
