Sacré Dieu, the time is upon us! It’s time for the Nebula Awards again! Yesterday, I shared with my patrons my predictions for the winners this year, and I’ll be going “off the verandah and into the field” to see how my predictions turn out. I’ll not only be in (virtual) attendance, I am moderating the panel on Unusual Short Story Formats! May 13, 10:30AM. With Oghunechevwe Donald Ekpeki, Carina Bissett, Ann LeBlanc, we’ll be discussing some of the beautiful, strange little ways short fiction can come out that novels simply won’t support, like single scenes where nothing happens and fictional forum threads.

And here’s where I’m going to be…
