Space Opera 2 wins the LOCUS AWARD for 2010
NEW SPACE OPERA 2 Gardner
Dozois, Jonathan Strahan (Editors) in which my short story, The Far End of History ( a Tale of the End
of the Seventh Mental Structure) has just won the prestigious Locus
Award (announcement is here).
Also Tor
Books my own esteemed publisher, Tom Doherty, from an invincible lair
on the thirteenth floor of the Flatiron Building in New York, won a well
deserved award over competition that can only be deigned incompetent,
and in some cases malign. I am confident my fawning and toadlicking and
unseemly cringing in the shadow of Tom Doherty had as much to do with
the winning of this award as the publication of books by Gene Wolfe.
I also note with pleasure that another anthology in which a tale of
mine appears, SONG
OF THE DYING EARTH Gardner
Dozois, George R.R. Martin (Editors) has won the additional laurels
of having what is now an Locus Award Winning short story, An
Invocation of Incuriosity by Neil Gaiman.
While my story in that volume, Guyal the Curator, had absolutely
nothing whatsoever to do with Mr. Gaiman's well merited award, I would
like my loyal reader (Hi, Mom!) to imagine or to pretend that the judges
were put in a good and receptive mood by reading my story first, so that
the judges doubtless would have been unable properly to savor Mr. Gaimans
story had it not been for me: in this way, with the same august dignity
as, for example, Gollum shows while lusting for the One Ring, I can have
my loyal reader pretend I have a right to bask in the shiny reflection
of Mr. Gaimans glory.
