Award Nominated!! (sort of... in a round about way...)

I had a story published in Neo-opsis 14 last year. Now, Neo-opsis is a Canadian sci fi mag, and very good one that I am proud to be associated with.

Since Canada is, last time I checked, a different nation from the one in which I live (that being the U.S.), I started jokingly referring to myself in various blogs and sites as "Internationally Published Author..."

Now, I find out that issues 14 and 15 of Neo-opsis have been nominated for the 2009 Aurora Award for Best Work in English (other). The Aurora Award is Canada's version of the Hugo and my story, "Shedding Skin" was one of twelve stories between the two issues. Okay, it's a stretch. Theyr'e largely nominated for the fine job they do putting together this magazine. But I'm willing to pad my resume with the assiociation.

Besides...I've been guilty by association often enough.
