I found it amusing that my horror collection One Hand Screaming was listed on a website (Rediff books - India's largest online bookstore) with a price of 666 rupees.
Yes, 666, the number of the beast, or mark of the devil.
(And it usually ships within 45 working days -- wow - that makes the standard 1 week wait around here for ordered books seem lightning fast)
How wonderfully fitting for a horror collection.
And yes, there is at least one specific reference to Satan in the book -- my story "Tricky Treater" which appears in OHS and was originally published in Crossroads magazine features the father of lies disguised as a little trick or treater.

I Love Mark Leslie
When my sci-fi anthology North of Infinity II went to remainder status a couple of weeks ago on the chapters.indigo.ca website, I also did a quick search of Amazon.com to see if it had been 
remaindered in the U.S. as well. (Mosaic, the publisher, is based in Canada, but also has an office and distribution channel into the United States from a U.S. address)
While I was searching on Amazon (some might call it ego browsing), I found this interesting product - a simple plain white I Love Mark Leslie t-shirt.
It's very likely this t-shirt was created as a reference to the Mark Leslie who was the founding CEO of Veritas (unless, of course, there are secret chapters of my fan club located all over the place) or perhaps it's just some sort of automated dynamically generated result of searching an author's name on Amazon -- but in any case I thought it was an interesting find.
But doesn't this just make you want to go out and buy an "I love Mark Leslie" t-shirt -- or two, or three?
