The latest reading opportunities…
When I was a kid growing up here in
Texas, my parents got me a subscription to a magazine called The Ranger’s
Almanac. Put out by the Texas Park Service, it featured a lot of cool
stuff from Texas Game Wardens. My first thought when SMFS list member John M.
Floyd announced his latest short story publication in the inaugural edition of The
Ranger's Almanac was that the Texas Park Service had brought it back.
Nope. This is something completely
different. The Ranger's Almanac: Vol. 1 is compiled by “… two
Forest Rangers from Pennsylvania” per the Amazon listing. SMFS list member John
M. Floyd’s mystery short story, Lewis and Clark, alongside other SMFS list
members. Tom Gorham’s poem (A Walk in the Forest at Night) and Mia Dalia’s
short story (The Last Dance) are included. SMFS list member Ed Teja also announced
that his wife, Dagny Sellorin, has a pastel painting, City of Rocks, in the
publication available at Amazon. Per their website, this market reopens on
September 1st.
Speaking of John M. Floyd, his short story,
Creativity, appears on Curated by Costuic substack here.
SMFS list member Ashley-Ruth Bernier announced
that her novel, The Bush Tea Murder: A Caribbean Island Mystery, was
now out. Published by Crooked Lane Books in a variety of formats, the read is available
at Amazon and other vendors.
The latest issue of Black Cat Weekly also came out. SMFS list member N.M. CedeƱo announced that her short story, The Case of the Dead Man's Daughter, appears in Black Cat Weekly #242. Her story is also the latest in a long line of SMFS list members being featured on the cover. You can pick up the latest issue here.
Until next time….
