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!
