My short story Whispers of the Goddess has been accepted by Rogue Blades Entertainment for inclusion in their anthology Roar of the Crowd. Each story had to have a lot of action, be based off a historical event or game and have at least a little bit of a fantasy present.
I was originally going to have a tale based around the ball games of central America but that story got too big for the antho so I had to come up with something else fast. My personal gut is to write what moves you--so I threw together a tale of the Crusades in 1204 as well as a bit of esoterica (that's esoterica) as in obscure references to to the Grail saga's and inspiration with the siege of Constantinople
as the backdrop.
The antho ought to be out around September, so its exciting to think about how many books I could be in this year, my own novel (released in one month) and several anthologies. I'll be posting when this one in particular is available. It's just the beginning of some great collections this year.

Great news. Here's some else cool:
You and I are going to be sharing the Table of Contents.
My story, "The Last Refuge of Piyamaradu," set in the 13th century Bronze Age Hittite Empire, has also been accepted for Roar of the Crowd.
That is so cool, that your story was accepted in the anthology. Way to go! Sounds like quite an interesting story, too!
Thanks everyone-I have barely been online all week. Just long enough to pre-post Nichole's book review and announce my acceptance at RBE.
Thanks again Nichole.
Ryan-excellent, I am really looking forward to everyone elses stories.

Congratulations David! I'm constantly impressed by the depth and detail you seem to strive for in your work. Boggles my non-detail oriented mind, I'll admit. Glad you're getting some well earned recognition!
Thank You Kim, I appreciate it.
