I (Rob) work with an amazing webmaster, writer, outreach person who just had a story she wrote published in a collection! Maggie Masetti (she wrote under the pen name of Maggie Allen) wrote a story in the Anthology called "A Hero By Any Other Name." I already ordered my copy! - Rob What’s Maggie's story about? “A Marvelous New World” takes place in the aftermath of Janine Spendlove’s story, “He was a Marvelous Man.” Her story made me wonder how the appearance of a real, live superhero would affect the comic book geek community, and I also liked the idea of those geeks getting a chance to become a part of superhero mythology themselves.
Here's what Maggie said:
Silence in the Library Publishing’s special anthology called “A Hero By Any Other Name” – is all short stories about superhero sidekicks. (It’s a companion to another Origins anthology with superhero stories.)Authors who have stories in A Hero By Any Other Name include: Aaron Allston, Michael Stackpole, Maxwell Alexander Drake, Jean Rabe, Janine Spendlove, Bryan Young, more, like me! (Pen name, Maggie Allen.)
This book has a cover by Denis Loubet and also has interior art by Mark Dos Santos, which is so cool. Having art drawn of my story? Again, so cool.
As you can tell, I’m super excited about this! If you are at Origins, you can pick up a copy for 10 bucks – otherwise it’s available on Amazon right now!

Here's a link to Silence in the Library Publishing's other project: We're working on a Kickstarter for another anthology, it's doing quite well so far and has some big names in it as well: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/103879051/time-traveled-tales-a-speculative-fiction-antholog
