It’s hard to believe, but my story “Halogen Sky” has been nominated for a Shirley Jackson Award for Best Short Fiction! It’s up against some amazing work, including a story I edited at Nightmare Magazine (“Dick Pig,” by the incredibly talented Ian Muneshwar). The Shirley Jackson Awards recognize fantasy and horror operating in the realm of the weird — my very favorite kind of fiction! — so I COULD NOT be happier about this nomination. I am also stunned, grateful, and overwhelmed!
A few weeks ago, my friend Jim Freund (who produces our podcast at Nightmare Magazine) asked me if I’d like to be a guest on his podcast. I was excited about the idea, but I got a little nervous once he told me it was actually a radio show on New York’s WBAI public radio station—and that the show had been running since 1971! My mind was blown when he started talking about all the amazing guests he’s had on the show over the years. If you’ve read a SF/F novel published since 1970, there’s a good chance Jim has had them on the show to chat.
Jim and I had a wonderful conversation about the different kinds of horror and how my goal at the magazine is to find a horror story for everybody. You can listen to our chat here in the WBAI archives!
