So I’m up for TWO Ditmar Awards this time, which is going to bring my total number of mentions in Locus up to four. What.

I’m deeply flattered, but also, this is going to be the happiest I’ve ever been to lose an award - CH Pearce is a better writer than me and one of the nicest people on earth, and if she doesn’t sweep the entire ballot then I have serious doubts about the state of Aussie literacy.

Thank you for those who nominated and/or will vote for me!

Update October 204: Fourth Locus mention and HELL YES! GO CH PEARCE!
