Well, there&#8217;s good news! I just signed a publishing contract with BSTSLLR.com, a new ebook publisher. The Ghost Trees, my murder mystery short story about death among cedar tree poachers, will appear soon in their anthology, West Coast Crime Wave.<\/p>\n<p>As is often the case with my mysteries, the story involves Peyton McKean, the Seattle biotechnology researcher and DNA test inventor, in a case dealing with Northwest native people, nature, and of course, crime. I&#8217;m excited to share billing in the book with some other Northwest authors, several of whom have long-standing records of publishing fine stories.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not sure how soon the ebook will be made available, but it won&#8217;t be long.
