I sat down one evening and tried to recreate a listing of all of my published works over the years. I know that this isn’t a complete listing, as there were many things I submitted for publication that were accepted by various and sundry publications that I’ve forgotten over the years, some gaming, Sci-fi, and fandom -zines, some vanity press things, and whatnot, but this is off the top of my head that I can actually remember.

A few of these, I no longer have copies of, to my regret. That’s a casualty of moving 3 dozen times in 40 years, a few floods, and a rodent infestation or two in your storeroom, not to mention the inevitatble computer failures and hard drive crashes.

However, here is my list as it currently stands. I may be able to expand on it a bit as more things surface. The one I really, really regret no longer having a copy of is the first one on the list. my only copy of it got destroyed in a flood of my parents’ storeroom in 1978 while I was overseas in the Navy, along with several years of personal correspondence with a lot of people who are now dead, and several magazines and journals that are long out of print and unavailable. See, however, the note with that entry.

The literary output of one Ashleigh M, slightly redacted:

How the Devil Got His Horns, and other tails ©1975, rev. ed. 2020 by AR Mitchell
Publication date 1975 revised and updated 2020, (this is still pending and in revision)
A collection of poems and stories from my childhood, including the tale of the night the Devil appeared in my closet and told me the true story of his “Fall from Heaven” (note: as of 1 March 2020, I am attempting to recreate as much of this as I can. Some of the poetry is lost forever, but others are still in diaries and journals.)

Somehow it doesn’t seem like a lot, considering that I’ve been scribbling on pads of paper since I was at least 10.
