No, this isn't some warped episode of Prison Break.
The I Do Anthology is available for purchase at All Romance Ebooks only $5.99 for the e-book.
Do you support the right of any human being to marry the person they
love? The right to say 'I Do' to a life of commitment and sharing with
the that one special person? We do.
We hope that marriage will soon be a dream that everyone can share.
That's why the following authors of LGBT fiction have donated stories to
this anthology, in aid of Lambda Legal Fund's fight for marriage equality:
Tracey Pennington, Alex Beecroft, Charlie Cochrane, Clare London, Storm
Grant, Lisabet Sarai, Sharon Maria Bidwell, Jeanne Barrack, Marquesate,
Z.A Maxfield, P.A Brown, Allison Wonderland, Erastes, Zoe Nichols and
Cassidy Ryan, Emma Collingwood, Mallory Path, Jerry L. Wheeler,
Moondancer Drake, Fiona Glass, Lee Rowan.
All profits from the sale of this anthology will be donated to the
Lambda Legal Defense to fight Prop 8 in support of marriage equality for
all.
Look at that selection of authors!

My (very short) short story is bundled in there with such great fiction, I feel like the last person to be chosen for the netball team (which I so often was in adolescent real life LOL). But I'm very VERY thrilled to be part of it.
The print version will be available by the end of the month, from MLR Press who so kindly donated all the publishing and the editing resources for us.
And later on in January I'll offer you the chance to WIN a copy of your choice, on this very Blog!
*insert ooohs and aaahs here*

I know I joke, but I must admit I *did* feel a bit overwhelmed with the quality and richness of the other stories. Mine felt like a (very very very small) Mike Leigh vignette in amongst that LOL. You cheer me up tremendously!
Mind you, it was also a great joy for me to write in my own domestic world, rather than the more melodramatic romance genre that I usually frequent *hehe*.
And I must also say that your Legionnaires story stands out, in so many ways - in drama, expression of love, and style. It's one I've returned to since, to enjoy again the prose and the wonderful, masculine emotion. *sighs happily*
Helps me sink back into my obvious obscurity as an 'also featuring'.
