More good news: “Non-Zero Probabilities”, my Clarkesworld story that’s already on the Final Ballot for the Nebula award, has also been nommed for the Hugo! There are no words to describe how stunned and thrilled I am by this. (Well, “stunned and thrilled” come close.) Seriously, ya’ll, this has been a banner year and it’s only April.
While I’m posting, though, let me remind folks that I’m reading tomorrow night at Lady Jane’s Salon, the new romance-fiction series that’s been getting lots of attention in the New York reading scene. Had thought about reading one of the “hot parts” from 100K, but those don’t work well without context, plus it’s hard to summarize so much of “what’s gone before”. So instead I’ll be reading (for those who have the book) pp. 76-81, which is not so much a hot part as a foreshadowing appetizer, with an amuse-bouche of sexual tension on the side. And since I’ll be reading with three other phenomenal newer authors, the evening promises to be tasty indeed. If you’re in the area, come check it out.
I’m not sure if this is the proper place for leaving messages of love and praise, but I found no better.
Thank you for writing such a wonderful book! Please continue writing, I’m very much looking forward to the sequels.
It is not often that I skip sleep altogether, because of a book. :)
I was so excited to see your story on the nominees list! Huge congrats!
