From Katrina Strauss: I'm pleased to announce my paranormal Victorian m/m piece, Sleight of Hand, has been contracted with Samhain Publishing. Release date will be late 2008 or early 2009. While Samhain does not offer a yaoi line per se and so will not categorize the story as such, readers of that genre can be assured that Sleight of Hand bears a distinctive yaoi flavor, along with a heavy anime influence and steampunk-ish elements. (This would be the story inspired by a marathon viewing session of D.Gray-Man, if that gives you any idea!) I'll announce an official release date as soon as I have one, so stay tuned!
