Her very first short story sale, "Fallen Idol," appeared in After Hours and was later reprinted in DAW'S YEAR'S BEST HORROR STORIES XX. Ms. Csernica has gone on to publish stories in DAW'S Year's Best Horror Stories XXI, 100 Wicked Little Witch Stories, and HORRORS! 365 Scary Stories. Her Christmas ghost story “The Family Spirit” appeared in Weird Tales #322 and “Maeve” appeared in #333. Ms. Csernica has also published an historical romance novel, SHIP OF DREAMS.
