How to assemble an anthology

Today over at FridayFlash.org, I have a guest post on one of the more wonky aspects of assembling an anthology: deciding on the order of the stories. It's not nearly as simple as you might think.

Go read my description of how I did it, then tell me your thoughts. Did I overthink this? Can you tell? Is this level of polish truly necessary, or is it something you don't even care about? Of course, you're welcome to buy and read "Blood Picnic and other stories" so you can track the behind-the-scenes detailing. It is $2.99 at Smashwords, Amazon and many other e-book outlets.
