If you’re looking for a general Arnzen bibliography, the ISFDB does a pretty good job capturing my appearances in the science fiction/fantasy/horror genres since the early 1990s, though it is only a partial view. Older small press works are also listed in the Zine Wiki. More recently published short stories and poems in magazines and anthologies also appears in the graphic lineup below.
