That’s 24 stories – every story of mine published from 2004 to 2010 except three, which could not appear due to contractual exclusivity periods which will not have expired before the book comes out:

  • P.R. Problems
  • An Early Ford Mustang
  • Bird-Dropping and Sunday

And, of course, there’s one story in there which has never before been published: “The Day the Music Died.”

Fifteen and a half of the stories are science fiction; eight and a half are fantasy and/or horror. (I’m counting “The Robot Sorcerer” as half and half.)
