As you can see, I'm in the process of redesigning this website. Hopefully it will soon be more user-friendly. Photo above to come.

I'm very pleased to report that I have a book coming out from Aqueduct Press. It's called Voices from Fairyland: The Fantastical Poems of Mary Coleridge, Charlotte Mew, and Sylvia Townsend Warner. It will be available at Wiscon.

Also, there's an interview with me in the current issue of Locus Magazine.

I've decided to put some of my older stories on this website. Here is the first of them: "The Rose in Twelve Petals."

My poem "The Witch" is currently up on Heliotrope. I haven't written poetry for a long time, and I really do like this one.

My short story "Catherine and the Satyr" is currently available on Strange Horizons. Another quite long story, "Csilla's Story," will be coming out in the alternative-history anthology Other Earths.

"The Rapid Advance of Sorrow" has been reprinted in both The Apocalypse Reader and The Best of Lady Churchill's Rosebud Wristlet.

My short story collection, In the Forest of Forgetting, is available in paperback. Interfictions is available as well. In the Forest of Forgetting was chosen as one of Booklist's top 10 science fiction and fantasy books of the year. Ray Olson writers,

Would you like to learn about Hungarian fairies? I have to warn you, this represents my very small knowledge of the subject, based entirely on research in English. Anyone who knows more about Hungarian fairies than I do (probably the entire population of Hungary) is welcome to correct me. But here it is anyway, my article on Hungarian fairies on the Endicott Studios website: "Hungarian Fairies."

Email your friends a postcard with my poem "The Bear's Daughter" on it! This is part of an Endicott Studios project. Here is the postcard for you to email, and here are other art-and-poetry postcards from Endicott.

British composer Brian Blyth Daubney has composed music for, and recorded, seven of my poems. They are on his CD October Roses, which you can order from the British Music Society. If you're interested, you can also read a review of the CD. The poems on the CD are "Autumn, the Fool," "Echo and Narcissus," "The Frost," "Helen in Sparta," "Goblin Song," "The Singer," and "Dirge for a Lady." I think several of them are unpublished, so this is the first time anyone can see (or hear) them . . .

If you would like to contact me, you can send me an email at theodora@theodoragoss.com. I'll just apologize in advance: it may take me a while to respond because I'm so terribly behind on everything at the moment. But I always appreciate hearing from you.
