Happy Tuesday, good people of Internetistan!

My rather bitter, slightly silly story “General Akmed’s Revenge?” is now live (and free!) at Expanded Horizons.  It’s a sort of “Tales from the Darkside” response to the crappy racist action movies of yesteryear, with the obligatory Super Mario Brothers-as-metaphor-for-life bit thrown in.  Hope you enjoy it!

Also, a couple of award season reminders:

1) I am eligible for the Campbell Award for Best New SF/F writer.  If you are a Worldcon member you can toss a nomination my way, as reviewer par excellence Rich Horton has. But the nomination deadline is rapidly approaching!

2) The deadline for final Nebula voting is March 30th.  My story “Hooves and the Hovel of Abdel Jameela” is on the ballot.  Active SFWA members can vote here.

Now back to novel revisions…
