I sure hope this brings some more attention to the anthology The Eyes of Texas. Rick Helm's story in that book will be included in a years-best anthology and there were plenty of other good stories. (Full disclosure: I also had a story in it.)
ReplyDeleteI did NOT have a story in it. All I did was read it and enjoy it.
