I guess that makes me your competition, skadder. I'm also a finalist this quarter. I was pretty stunned when I got the call. This was the second sf story I wrote! IP: Logged |

Thanks Chris. You got some sharp eyes there--she only posted it about half an hour ago. I've known for about ten days and it's been hard to bite my tongue! IP: Logged |

Congratulations. Now that you've won one, maybe you can broaden your conceptual horizons a bit :-) I'm still waiting on that carapace story btw, though I do have 2 crits in front of it. IP: Logged |

Wow...thanks for all the congratulations, guys. @Merlion--not a chance, my narrow view got me this far! The carapace story hasn't really been done yet--it's stalled for the moment. I'm not a natural blogger, but I will try and do one for the workshop week--either during or I'll take notes and blog it later. I'll see. I'm not sure how many hatrack winners there have been over time--Aliette de Bodard (silverfox or something) springs to mind. Kathleen may have the stats. Anyway, two in one go this time--congratulations to Brad! IP: Logged |

It's nice to finally get a base hit in this game. Only took me 870,000 words and 138 rejections and 17 years. =^) Thanks, all. Feels mighty, mighty good! Visit my blog. I've been yammering. http://bradrtorgersen.wordpress.com/ Good luck to everyone who has stories in the Q4 and Q1 piles. IP: Logged |

PS nice blog. And your previous HM and Finalists are exciting too. Out of all the stories I read in my first WOTF anthology, the one thing that stands out the most was the author descript saying that she submitted to WOTF every quarter before finally breaking through. IP: Logged |
