New Steampunk Anthology
I am thrilled and delighted to announce a new Steampunk anthology I am currently editing and writing for, featuring sixteen brand new stories from some of the most exciting and critically acclaimed writers working in the genres of SF, Fantasy & Steampunk today, scheduled to be published on 1st June 2012 by UK publishers Snowbooks.
The anthology will feature writers such as Brian Herbert, co-writer of the Dune sequels and Fantasy & Horror legend Tanith Lee, contributing Steampunk stories that will reimagine some of our most beloved classic works of fiction; such as Sherlock Holmes, Carnacki, H. Rider Haggard, Jekyll & Hyde and White Fang.
What would these timeless, classic stories be like if they had been written in an alternate reality to ours; a reality where Ebenezer Scrooge is taken to an alternate Steampunk Christmas that never happened by the Ghost of Christmas Sideways, or Robin Hood fights in the Holy Land against the forces of darkness in the fourth steam-powered Crusades?
The full line-up is;
01 - Philip Palmer
02 - Brian Herbert & Bruce Taylor
03 - Adam Roberts
04 - Tanith Lee & John Kaiine
05 - Lavie Tidhar
06 - Juliet E. McKenna
07 - George Mann
08 - Kim Laikin-Smith
09 - Roland Moore
10 - Scott Harrison
11 – Jim Mortimore
12 – Alison Littlewood
13 – Paul Magrs
14 – Simon Bucher-Jones
15 – Cavan Scott
16 - Rachel E. Pollock
Edited by Scott Harrison

Winfield H. Strock III posted a blog postThe Jekyll and Hyde of Writing
Writing and rewriting are two sides of the same coin but each takes a different kind of mindset to accomplish. Most folks think of writing when they imagine what writers do; scribbling creative characters, scenes; oozing creativity onto the page into the wee hours of the night.
