Isn’t this way cool? Although I blush at being considered a mentor.

Jim’s a former teacher of mine; it felt odd when he and were both up for the novella Nebula a few years ago. Now it feels odd again. :-)

Jim! Great to hear from you! And yeah, Saladin and I are already planning to dress all in black and have ourselves a knife fight at the next Altered Fluid meeting…

Congrats to you as well!

I’m going for the bow-and-arrows, actually. Though you’ll be safe enough, because I can’t hit the side of a barn. ^_-

Yes, your probability of winning a Nebula is definitely non-zero! I’m very happy for you, Nora. But seriously, don’t get into the ring with Saladin. He sounds like he knows what he’s doing, weapon-wise.

YES!!

Now the real question — which one of us gets the sword, and which the net and trident?

You totally deserve it. Your book was so well controlled and written. It was just….Martinesque. You deserve it. I hope you win.
