It’s That Time of Year: My 2018 Eligibility Post
Folks, it’s awards season and it’s time for me to submit my eligible stories for 2018. I humbly request you read them for consideration for the Nebulas, Hugos, Locus, World Fantasy or the Campbell (I’m in my last year of eligibity). At the very least, I’d love for them to be read and thought about again.
Many thanks!
My two eligible publications are in the Short Story Category (under 7,500 words):
Writing for the End of the World – This appeared in Nature on March 7, 2018 (996 words). This is an origin story for post-apocalyptic fiction interwoven with one of my favorite jokes.
Emergency Evaluation for Penny Ante, as Recorded by Cal-Q-Tron of the Benevolent Order of Heroes – This appeared in Galaxy’s Edge #32, their May/June 2018 issue (999 words). Penny Macías, sidekick to Major Patriot is up for her her first job evaluation, and it turns out she’s not the best fit for the job.
Over at The 1000 Year Plan, they found this story funny enough for a mention.
I hope to have a post detailing what short fiction I’ve loved in the coming weeks, so keep an eye out for that post. Thank you again!
