This Headline Has the Word Autochthonous
The resulting anthology, Logorrhea: Good Words Make Good Stories, features 21 stories from many of speculative fiction's rising stars, including Jeff VanderMeer, Alan De Niro, and our bookblogging pal Matthew Cheney, as well as seasoned pros like Michael Moorcock and Alex Irvine, even the mainstream literary author Michelle Richmond. "I let the authors chose their own words," Klima says of the setup, and though not everybody named their stories after their words, most did, leading to titles such as "Vivisepulture" and "Appoggiatura." (Clearly having fun with the concept, Leslie What named her story, based on the word psoriasis, "Tsuris.") "There are more than 70 winning words at this point, and I knew I would have about 20 contributors," Klima adds. "With the writers choosing their own words, it let them find something that really spoke to them." And that still leaves enough for two more sequels! Email This Post |
