Resonating

There's a new Aussie anthology out - Mythic Resonance - which includes a few names that resonate with me.

I'm not in it, but TOC buddy from The Tangled Bank: Love, Wonder, and Evolution Jen White has a tale in it, as has Sue Bursztynski, she who long ago rescued The Six Solvers and the Mystery of the Sad Boy from the ASIM slush pile. Then there's Donna Maree Hanson, who actually championed the very story that I submitted to this anthology when I previously subbed it to an anthology she was co-editing back in 2008. Alas, that anthology was cancelled because they did not receive enough quality stories and the story in question has been homeless since (everyone keeps commenting that it reads like the first chapter of a novel when I've never thought of it as anything but a short story. I'm still trying to figure out how to fix the ending, if indeed it needs fixing.)

Anyway, enough about me and my living vicariously through my tenuous links with this book.

Ea, master of Apsu, the great water beneath the earth; Gelert, the faithful hound; Medusa and Herakles; sirens, valkyries, fairies; Leonardo Da Vinci and Snow White — these are just some of the legendary characters that resonate within this thought-provoking garland of short stories from Australia.
