The idea I had was to do an anthology called Arcana which would contain one story for each of the major arcana cards from a tarot card deck. That friend was Candas Dorsey and that conversation changed my life. I remember leaving the lunch and practically skipping back to the bus stop I was so excited. She was very encouraging, said my idea was a good one and offered to help in a handful of ways. So, in 2011 I called a friend who knew a thing or two about anthologies, invited her to lunch and picked her brain. I didn’t know how to pitch it, where to pitch it, none of that stuff. I’d done a couple print versions of Niteblade (which you could argue were anthologies but were mostly print versions of Niteblade) but I had an idea for an actual anthology I wanted to do and no idea where to start in making that happen. It was some years ago that I first considered dipping my toe into the world of anthologies.
