Yay, lonewolf23 has scored a list of the Australian writers making it into Ellen Datlow’s Year’s Best Fantasy & Horror recommended reading list, & BOTH my stories from 2004 have made the list.
That’s “Cinnamon Gate” from Orb #6 & “Number 3 Raw Place” from Agog! Smashing Stories (the latter also making the Ditmar noms list for ’04). How cool do I feel? Pretty cool. :) Also excellent to recognise the names of many deserving friends on the list! Yay, you guys!
Interesting to see the way the chosen stories are clustered largely in Agog!, Orb & Encounters. Wimmin editors have clearly stormed the battlements, eh?
