Some good news…
While I was traveling last weekend, I learned that my short story “The Martian Obelisk” won the Locus Award for best short story. I’m honored! Very honored.

Well deserved. The story was haunting and starkly beautiful. I’ve read it a couple of times now and it changes in my mind each time I read it. That’s the wonder of an effective story.
