One of my stories 'An Empty Kind of Love' printed in Escape Velocity Magazine and reviewed here:

...has been nominated for the yearly awards of the British Science Fiction Association in the short fiction category--which is cool.

Thanks Rich, I am up against the likes of Stephen Baxter, so I don't hold out much hope. Still, nice to be nominated--I wish I knew who had nominated it.

Bravo.

You might surprise yourself--and Stephen Baxter might wind up eating your dust.

Just remembered that this was the second story I wrote--but the first short story--and the first I sold. It's all gone downhill since then...

Downhill in a bad way! I have written stories I feel are better, but alas no increase in sales (or quality of sales). Two plain rejects from WOTF.

Thanks Annepin. I have been lurking but Christmas is a bad time for writing for me and it takes me a while to get back into it.

Thanks, Robert. I feel like Luke Skywalker.
