score!

Ooh! Found out this morning that my novella Heart of Stone from Couer de Lion’s anthology X6 scored an honourable mention in Gardner Dozois’s Year’s Best Science Fiction – Twenty-Seventh Annual Collection

Of X6, he had this to say:
‘One of the year’s best anthologies was published by an ultra-small press in Australia, and is going to be very difficult for most readers to find. Nevertheless, X6 (coeur de lion), a collection of six novellas edited by Keith Stevenson, features two of the best stories of the year – an evocative reinvention of the selkie legend by Margo Lanagan and a brutal, hard-hitting examination of a disintegrating future Australia by Paul Haines – as well as good work by Terry Dowling and Cat Sparks.’

Yay team!
