Woot! I sold “Digging Deeper” to Hayden’s anthology through Bundoran Press, Blood and Water! My first sale of the year!
Galleys for my collection
So, now I have galleys for Immunity to Strange Tales! I’ve seen the introduction by Mark Leslie, the cover art, the font–it’s getting really exciting! The launch is in August at When Words Collide.
Aurora Awards Announcement is Out!
Yay! I was nominated for an Aurora Award in the short fiction category! My story, “Turning it Off” in Analog last December was eligible, and now I am on the short list! Thanks to everyone who nominated me, and congratulations to all my worthy opponents–some awesome names on that list!
I also got a second, side-ways nomination: the novel I edited, Technicolor Ultramall, by Ryan Oakley, was the first novel I edited for Edge. Also very exciting!
Write-Off was great!
So the Write-Off–IFWA’s semi-annual writers’ retreat–was awesome. Managed to revise a whole short story and re-submit, as per the editor’s request–fingers crossed!
A Ski Week
So, last week my husband had off work, so we skied in Golden and Rossland, B.C. Had some awesome conditions with lots of fresh powder and steep slopes. One adventure in Rossland looked as though it was going to lead us over a cliff, but we were able to ski off to the side and get back onto a regular run. Untracked powder through the trees–pretty tempting!
