2018 Awards Eligibility

Nominations are now open for the 2018 Nebula Awards, for SFWA members (including Associate members). This post lists my fiction eligible for the 2018 awards, and includes reading links. If you read and enjoy a story, please consider nominating it (I can’t nominate my own fiction, nor can the publishers).

I’ll write a follow-up post in a few weeks about the fiction I’ll be nominating myself — lots of great choices this year.

Advice For Your First Writing Conference

I just returned from the 2018 Nebula Conference in Pittsburgh. It was my first writing con of any kind, and going in I was nervous. When I signed up (and reserved my hotel, and purchased my flight) I knew literally zero people who would be attending the con. Some I followed on Twitter (and some of those even followed me), but in terms of people I’d actually met in person–none. I was that unconnected with the sci-fi/fantasy writing community. And I knew that was something I needed to fix.
