Despite my love for the genre, Livia and I haven't made many forays into sword and sorcery. This short story is one of them, and I think it's a pretty good one. We wrote it a while back for an anthology called NEW AMAZONS, which was edited by Margaret Weis. "Look You on Beauty and Death" has got swordplay, an evil wizard, a little humor, and a few plot twists. We've gone through it, revising it and expanding it some from its original version. I hope those of you who like heroic fantasy will check it out. It's only 99 cents for 7,000 words of action.
I have an unpublished fantasy novel sitting in my files, but it's going to take a considerable amount of work before it's ready to see the light of day. I expect to have it available as an e-book, too, sooner or later.

James, same for me. Love the genre, have only written one book. Would love to do more.

All right, now I have to know.
What Sword & Sorcery book did you write, RJR?
Well done you two. Loved it. More Ralna please.
Thanks, Charles. I wouldn't rule out Ralna's return. Just a matter of finding the time.
Not strictly S&S it was more of a Heroic Fantasy combined with the private eye book. It was called--Jeez, what was it called? I wrote it for TSR. It was supposed to be with Ed Gorman, but I ended up doing it with Kevin Randle. Wow, I don't even see a copy of it on my shelves. Hmm, I'll come up with the title . . .
Ah, ONCE UPON A MURDER.
