Another exciting piece of news I missed sharing while I was away.
WolfSongs 2, a collection of science fiction and fantasy incorporating wolves of all sorts–from the mythological to shapeshifters to metaphorical–has won EPIC 2013’s award for best anthology. This second volume in a popular series (and the origin of the name of my publisher, WolfSinger) contains my fantasy not-exactly-romance “The Loving and Keeping of Wolves,” which features–spoilers!–wolves of the shapeshifting and, depending on your feelings for them, metaphorical sorts. My other personal favorites in the anthology are “Wolf Dreams” by S.A. Bolich and Laura J. Underwood’s “Song of Feasting.” For these stories, if not for mine (not that I’m saying “Loving and Keeping” had nothing to do with it, ahem ahem) this award is well-deserved!
About Therese
Therese Arkenberg's first short story was accepted for publication on January 2, 2008, and her second acceptance came a few hours later. Since then they haven't always been in such a rush, yet her work appears in places like Beneath Ceaseless Skies, Analog, Daily Science Fiction, and the anthology Sword & Sorceress XXIV. Aqua Vitae, her science fiction novella, was released by WolfSinger Publications in December 2011.
She works as a freelance editor and writer in Wisconsin, where she returned after a brief but unforgettable time in Washington, D.C. When she isn't reading, writing, or editing (it's true!) she serves on the board of the Plowshare Center of Waukesha, which works for social, economic, and environmental justice.
