My email this morning brought me a pressie. "Drowning Palmer" has been selected for The Year's Best Fantasy and Horror XX (eds. Datlow, Link, & Grant).



This inspires me to be utterly shameless and point out that The Virtu is in the running for a Locus Award for Best Fantasy Novel this year.

Also, if you're eligible to nominate for the Hugos (or, you know, other awards) and were wondering ... *ahem*

In 2006, I published:

NOVEL--The Virtu

NOVELETTES--"Drowning Palmer" (All Hallows 41), "Katabasis: Seraphic Trains" (Tales of the Unanticipated 27)

SHORT STORIES--"Amante Dorée (Paradox 10), "Draco campestris" (Strange Horizons), "The Ile of Dogges" [with [livejournal.com profile] matociquala] (Æon 7), "Letter from a Teddy Bear on Veterans' Day" (Ideomancer 5.3), "A Light in Troy" (Clarkesworld Magazine 1), "National Geographic On Assignment: Mermaids of the Old West" (Fictitious Force 2), "A Night in Electric Squidland" (Lone Star Stories), "The Séance at Chisholm End" (Alchemy 3)

Wow. I was busy in 2006.



Right. Having shouted ME ME ME all over the Intarwebs, I shall return to my CEM. Page 435--I may beat this thing yet.

Yaaaay!

I think I'm not supposed to tell you this, but I placed Virtu on the long list for the Mythopoeic Fantasy Award. (We develop the long list Jan-Feb15, then the committee reads as many as possible and votes for the short list which we then reread and vote on the winner.)

I cannot keep up with short fiction these days because there are so many small venues with, ahem, idiosyncratic distribution. Please do a collection soon!
