“Eden could tell that she made Grey nervous. She liked that.” – From “Eden’s Revenge, by Missouri Vaun

The gold rush in California beckons. They say a man can make his fortune there, but I intend to be a queen.

Dangerous Women is coming.

A killing spree hadn’t been a part of her plans but she rarely plans. Chaos is its own reward.

Dangerous Women: Tales of Queer Villiany, is a new anthology from our friends at Northwest Press, featuring 13 stories by Tristan Tarwater, Leia Weathington, JD Glass, Susan Smith, Erica Friedman, Jude McLaughlin, Barbara Ann Wright, Mari Kurisato, Claire Monserrat Jackson, Audrey Chase, Missouri Vaun, Merc Rustad, and Emily Singer.

“If I asked,” she murmurs, her voice like molten honey, “would you give me your heart?”

I swallow. “Literally or figuratively?”

The Kickstarter for this spectacular anthology, for which I was both editor and contributor will be launched next week at Geek Girl Con in Seattle.  Look for the Northwest Press booth and find out about more, meet some of the contributors and be part of this special book.

“Mom and Dad are such decent people.  I can’t imagine what they’d think of me if they knew about the… killing part.”

Evil. Was it born this way? Maybe these villains knew from the very beginning, maybe not, but by the time you get to meet them, they’ve come through the crucible and learned to accept themselves for who they are.

“What kind of villainess appears and disappears in a flurry of heart-shaped petals? Me, apparently.”

Please consider supporting this anthology. We’ve kicked butt writing it for you. ^_^

“Alex deepened her smile and did the thing where she squinted a bit to make it look as if she felt a deep camaraderie and affection for these people. She had gotten quite good at it.”

Dangerous Women is coming. Are you ready for it?
