Finally, after keeping up my subscription for 22 years

27Apr09

Hey, Pandemonium made the Locus Awards short list for best first novel!

If only I could be there in person.  Then Paul Melko and I could duel to the death for the prize — while this plays in the background.*

(Extra nerd points if you recognized the soundtrack from “Amok Time” episode of Star Trek, the classic Spock/Kirk fight where Spock is mad with 7-Year Vulcan Lust. Pon farr, baby. Until just now I did not know that Theodore Sturgeon wrote that episode.)
