I just got notice that my submission to the upcoming Dragon Moon Press anthology, Swords and Swashbucklers, has been accepted. Details of the line-up are on the editors blog: http://vg-ford.livejournal.com/606113.html
This is a companion volume to Rum and Runestones, and like its predecessor, is a collection of stories features pirates and magic as primary plot elements.
I'm excited because this is my first sale outside the romance genre. My story, currently titled "Running from the Storm", is set in the same world and several of my romance stories (Embracing the Dragon, Lessons, and Winter King), but it's pure fantasy, with no romantic elements at all.
Morien, an Elven mage with a rare talent for manipulating weather, has been captured and enslaved by Tengri pirates. When the ship is taken by a larger pirate boat, he expects to die. But life rarely gives you what you expect. Will the new ship bring him simply a new set of masters, or a chance of rescue?
No publication date has been set yet. I'll post when I know more.

Of the short stories, it's a mixed bag.
I have one in an anthology called "I Put a Spell on You", ISBN 978-1603709347, available in Kindle format from Amazon.
http://www.amazon.com/Put-Spell-You-BA-Tortuga/dp/1603709347/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1292768050&sr=8-1
The story is called "Winter King", and is a M/M/F erotic romance.
My first story, "Lessons", appeared in an anthology titled "Cherry", edited by Michelle Rode, ASIN: B002UNN75A, which is also available for Kindle.

This one is M/M erotic romance.
The most recent short story, "Borders", is available only from the publisher, Torquere Books.

They offer it in a variety of e-book formats (You get all of them in a zip archive when you purchase). I believe the newer Kindles will let you read PDF files, but I don't have one so I haven't checked it out.
I don't think that the new story will be available for Kindle. The first volume isn't, and there's no reference in the contract to electronic rights.

If you're free and not to tired on Sat. night, maybe we can steal you away to introduce you to one of our favorite restaurants. It's Nepalese, and they do the most wonderful vegetarian dishes.
