I’ve recently had a speculative story accepted to Australia-based Gypsum Sound Tale‘s Colp series. The latest collection, “Sky’s the Limit,” features stories that touch on the mystery and majestic nature of the sky. Simple, sublime and surreal.

From the editor: 

The sky has always fascinated me. The more I learn, the more questions I seem to have. Free radicals, refracting light, the knowledge that, if you travel high enough, everything will eventually give way to the blackness of space – each fact makes me more and more curious about what might be going on up there. There are stories wrapped up in this knowledge, plenty of stories…

Colp’s latest collection, Sky’s The Limit, contains twelve of these tales. Each story presents a unique perspective on our atmosphere and the effect that it may have on the people living, day by day, on the land down below.

My story, “Night Call,” focuses on a boy struggling with his day and a nocturnal visit by a mysterious acrobat.
