For those of you interested in thumbing through the nominated works of the Best Short Story category:
- “The Cartographer Wasps and the Anarchist Bees” by E. Lily Yu (Clarkesworld April 2011)
- “The Homecoming” by Mike Resnick (Asimov’s April/May 2011)
- “Movement” by Nancy Fulda (Asimov’s March 2011)
- “The Paper Menagerie” by Ken Liu (The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction March/April 2011)
- “Shadow War of the Night Dragons: Book One: The Dead City: Prologue” by John Scalzi (Tor.com)
I would love to hear any feedback on the stories – thoughts on winners, losers, and if you think Scalzi was actually serious when he wrote that.
well, that Ken Liu story had me weeping my eyes out, so I guess that one should win.
And here we are 5 1/2 months later and you picked the winner! Maybe that should be your new way of going about life. I’d buy some lottery tickets.
hmmm…. maybe not so fast on the lottery tickets. only two of my pics actually won.
