My Year of Short Stories and Collections (so far)

August 24, 2021 By Kari Kilgore

KK August 2021 collection covers

With August being my birthday month, I often take stock of how the year is going in all kinds of ways. Since this website focuses on my fiction, that’s where my thoughts turned today.

I didn’t especially plan it as 2021 came into focus through the chaos and confusion toward the end of the decade of 2020, but this has turned into The Year of Short Stories and Collections. And I’m having all kinds of fun with the writing and the publishing.

You’re sure to find a collection that suits your tastes for your end-of-summer short story reading!

Discover Cave Creek: Where the Unexpected Meets the Real World

May 5, 2021 By Kari Kilgore

Open Ended Threat cover

So excited to see all of these stories out in the world, and delighted to have one of my own included! I dug into my nerdy fascination with flowers and pollinators for this one, with a heavy dose of my lifelong love of all things Twilight Zone.

You’ll find “An Impossible Desert Flower” in Open Ended Threat, and stories from a bunch of my favorite writers in all four volumes of the Cave Creek series, including two from Jason A. Adams!

Great Contest News, and All Kinds of Free Reading!

February 6, 2020 By Kari Kilgore

The Spider Who Ate the Elephant cover

This year started out fast and busy around here, and I have all kinds of fun things to share!

The first goes back to last year, when I entered my very short story “The Spider Who Ate the Elephant” into the Golden Nib Contest for The Virginia Writers Club. My home group The Appalachian Authors Guild surprised me by picking it as their winning entry. Then I was even more pleasantly surprised when it took second place in fiction statewide!

Large Print Editions Available for Most Spiral Publishing Titles

November 6, 2019 By SpiralPublishing

Walking the Ghosts LP cover

(An update from Spiral Publishing that I couldn’t be happier about! For the first time, I have more pre-orders for my Voices through Time novella Walking the Ghosts in Large Print than standard.)

With our Large Print editions selling well over the summer, we decided to make that format available for all of our novellas, novels, and collections (when possible, more on that later). We’re delighted to have this format available for anyone who needs or just wants it.
