This year I had the great honor of guest-editing a volume of Elly Blue's Bikes in Space anthology series. The theme: Queer Halloween. The title:
What Rides at Night: Queer, Feminist, Fantastical, Bicycle Halloween Stories.
I love all thirteen spooky, quirky, and compelling Halloween-themed stories on two wheels, and I hope you will too.

From the back cover:
Ever gotten lost in a book? Or on your bicycle? Or both at once, by falling through a portal on the page?
Anything is possible in this collection of fifteen very short stories and one comic. Ranging from science fiction to fantasy and traveling in time from a reimagined past to the heat death of the universe, these stories combine the personal and popular power of spokes and words. Meet a young graduate who rides off to become a velo-archivist, a bookstore owner who must learn to bike after cars are banned, a daredevil messenger who makes a harrowing textbook delivery run, a talented scribe who creates a braille bicycle guide, and many more adventurous souls in disparate realities, united by their love for spinning wheels and the written word.
