Hide and Seek anthology, (ISBN: 978-1573442916), Cleis Press, September 2007

Clash of Steel: Assassin, Carnifex Press, December 2005

“I was particularly struck by the little gem, ‘Sultan’s Sons’ by Dayle A Dermatis. This was, in my opinion, the shortest and strongest story in the entire collection.”
- www.horrorreader.com

“You want something new and something fresh and I think I got that when I accepted [a story] from…Dayle Dermatis. I’d like to think that someday these…writers will be at the forefront of the new age in Fantasy and I can say that I helped them in my own small way.”
- Armand Rosamilia

Best Lesbian Love Stories: Summer Fling anthology

Fabulous Whitby anthology, Shrew Press (UK).

Just to let you know, I’ve had to cancel my participation in the reading. I still sound like I’m hacking up a lung, which just isn’t sexy.

If you were planning on going, I encourage you to still do so and support the other writers. Thanks!

I’ll be participating in a group reading (and, I assume, booksigning) in Hollywood on 9/17. I realize that getting to Hollywood on a Monday night isn’t the easiest thing, and also that lesbian erotica may not be your cup of tea! But if you CAN make it, it would mean a lot to me. While I don’t have a particular problem speaking in public, I’ve never done a reading of my own work before, and yeah, that makes me a little nervous… =8-0

Here’s the info:

Monday, September 17
7:30 p.m.
A Different Light
8853 Santa Monica Blvd.
West Hollywood CA 90069

Feel free to cross-post/forward as you see fit. No need to respond (unless you want to let me know you’re coming and will be bringing a paper bag in case I hyperventilate … ). Hope you see some of you there!

If you’re anything like me, you’ve spent the last week staggering around wondering how it got to be the beginning of September already.

So I’ve decided to extend the contest deadline for How Many Styx and SRP References Can You Find in A Little Night Music to Sunday at midnight. Click on “Contests” to view the full rules. I know some of you are already working on it (I’ve received several entries already!), and I hope you’re having fun with it!
