Koch, Anita Ensal, Jemma Chase, A.E. Stanton, and J.C. Koch, all with novels, novellas, and/or stories featured in excellent anthologies, available now and upcoming. www.ginikoch.com

It's Pre-Order All the Anthologies Time! Yes, it's true, I have several new anthology releases coming out this year, and they're all available for pre-order. Pre-orders, as all y'all know, are hugely important to the publishing industry, so check these out and get these great anthos pre-ordered today!

SUPERSTITIONS: TALES FROM THE MOUNTAINS coming April 24th from Audio Publishing From abandoned mines and forgotten trails, to Native American ruins and an apple orchard, the Superstition Mountains are full of history and intrigue. Forming the eastern border of Arizona's Valley of the Sun, the Superstitions have not only been an incredible source of beauty and outdoor adventure, but also a place riddled with superstition and mystery. To this day treasure hunters scour the mountains for gold. They research old landmarks and maps along with clues from generations past. Featuring "Coyote and the Doorway Between the Worlds" by moi writing as A.E. Stanton. Pre-order from Amazon.

DERELICT coming this summer from Zombies Need Brains No one can resist the mystery of the abandoned ship--whether it's the ghost ship found afloat at sea in the Bermuda Triangle or the spaceship drifting in the depths of space a la the movie Alien. What happened to the crew? What horror forced them to abandon their vessel and flee…or are they still on board, trapped or even all dead? In this anthology, we want authors to explore all of the possibilities when one runs across…a DERELICT. Featuring "Saving Sallie Ruth" by moi writing as Anita Ensal Pre-order directly from Zombies Need Brains (Amazon pre-orders will be available closer to release date).

GUNFIGHT ON EUROPA STATION coming November 2021 from Baen Books   An actual wagon train to space? Gunslinging cowpokes riding in rickety rocketships? From the lone stranger who flies into town to help a widow and her daughter to the alien rancher trying to pose as human,  the pair of mercenaries who sign on to stop a mining camp insurrection only to discover they might be on the wrong side of evolution, or the prospector who finds the strike of a lifetime but ends up stranded on a barren moon without hope of rescue, what isn’t possible when you mix science fiction and Westerns?  Featuring "Showdown on Big Rock 27" by moi writing as Anita Ensal. Pre-order from Amazon.

THE REINVENTED HEART coming February 2022 from Arc Manor Publishing The Reinvented Heart will contain Science Fiction stories of love and other relationships. Featuring "Go Where the Heart Takes You" by moi writing as Anita Ensal. Not quite ready for pre-orders yet, but I wanted all y'all to see this great cover reveal!
