With the understanding that you should not vote for me only because you like me, or because you’re a friend of mine, or because you like my blogging on Facaebook, or because you liked that other story I wrote that time,
that you should vote for *these* only if you are totally blown away by these stories,
I hereby provide a handy-dandy single-stop reference to my award-eligible work from 2016.
I have spared you a couple of links to work that I like but that strike me for whatever reason as not quite worthy of award consideration. This is still a complete list of my publications for the year.
SHORT STORIES:
“The Old Horror Writer” , NIGHTMARE MAGAZINE, May 2016. Horror.
“The Four Haunted Houses” , NIGHTMARE MAGAZINE, September 2016. Horror.
“Framing Mortensen,” WHAT THE #@&% IS THAT?, November 2016. Horror.
“The Refrigerator in the Girlfriend, “ UPSIDE DOWN (Apex Anthology). Science Fiction. This file is my draft and may contain a few rough spots later cleaned up in copyediting.
“The Assassin’s Secret,” LIGHTSPEED MAGAZINE, August 2016. Fantasy.
NOVELLAS:
“The Coward’s Option,” An Andrea Cort novella, ANALOG magazine, March 2016. (Uncorrected RTF file). Science Fiction. My favored of this year’s two novellas.
“The Soul Behind the Face,” a Draiken novella, ANALOG, October 2016. Science Fiction.
NOVEL:
GUSTAV GLOOM AND THE CASTLE OF FEAR, Grosset and Dunlap. Middle-Grade. (No link, as I cannot give you the whole book for free, but I am proud of it).
