I am very excited to announce that I have been published professionally for the first time! I have a short story in an anthology called, "I Should Have Stayed In Oz" which is available through Yard Dog Press. It is available as a soft cover and as an e-book!
Please take a look, and if you enjoy the idea of some really fun and interesting takes on what happened after Dorothy got back, purchase a copy!
You can get the soft cover at the Yard Dog Press website:

and you can purchase the e-book through Amazon.com:

Also, my darling husband (better known as The Gypsy King of Scarborough Faire for the last couple of years) didn't get into that anthology but DID get into the e-book only anthology entitled "I Didn't Quite Make It To Oz" and that is also available via Amazon.com:

Read! Enjoy! Tell your friends! I can't begin to describe how thrilled we both are, and how exciting this is! :)
Well, I declare, dear, one might expect you to be at least a little enthusiastic about such an accompli ---
Oh, wait, you did say EXCITED!!! didn't you. ;D ;D ;D
Fantastic and hoorah for you.
Now, time to get busy on the next work. ;)
Bigtime grats. Maybe some day I will get brave enough to put some of my stuff out there. ;D
Congrats, Lys! That's really exciting. I am compelled to get a copy, as I was a huge fan of the Oz books when I was young. I'll insist on you personalizing it for me next April.
A big thanks to those of you who purchased or are planning on purchasing copies of the books!
And yes, I will happily personalize any copies that people bring when they see me at faire or wherever. It still feels weird to have people ask me that, but a very cool kind of weird! :)
congratulations!
Squeee! for you, Lys! That's so cool!
Oh, I'm so excited for you!!! Congratulations!!! Yard Dog is a great press, and the people there are all KINDS of fun! ;D They have some of the best collections I've ever read, so I know yours has to be exceptional to be included... WewT!!!
Congratulations Lys!
