Nebula Awards
Nov. 17th, 2010 01:02 pmBeing under no illusions, but also subscribing to the theory of "you can't win if you don't play," here is a listing of all my fiction that is eligible for Nebula Award nomination this year. I have provided links to fiction online. If someone is interested in nominating a story not online, I will happily send you the file to put up in the SFWA Forums, since I am not a SFWA member.
Novellas:
The Horror at Cold Springs, published by Sam's Dot Publishing. When a disparate group of travelers find themselves stranded in a ghost town on the western Nebraska frontier, will they unravel the mystery of the missing townsfolk and survive to tell the tale?
Should We Drown in Feathered Sleep, published by Carina Press. After war destroys modern society, Grace Kriske finds herself trapped in a community that disapproves of her rebellious ways. Grace’s only solace is her lover, David Tvedt, a trader who wants to take her away with him—if she’d let him. Yet something else calls to Grace: Loons haunt her dreams, lurking in her mind as if part of her deepest primal self. Will Grace risk everything to help the community that shuns her, or will she choose her own path?
