Right. I have been encouraged to make one of these so here we are. My awardeligible stories from 2014.

I didnt publish that much last year. Mostly I had three stories out in the places that people knowmy first pro sales and Im very glad of them. Some people have said very nice things about them too for which Im grateful. Yay my little babies have found places in peoples hearts

All three of my works published this year have been scifi and are eligible for the Hugo the Nebula and as was just brought to my attention today the BSFA.

I am also eligible for the John Campbell Award For Best New Writer. Its the first year Im running.

Storytelling For The Night Clerk at Strange Horizons My first pro sale My baby. It was favourably reviewed by Lois Tilton and later made her list of favourite stories in 2014. It also made Nina Allans list of recommended 2014 fiction.

Harvestfruit at Crossed Genres My first flash sale to CGs special flash issue. I know flash is a hard sell at awards time but I listed it here for completeness of portfolio since Campbell etc

Patterns Of A Murmuration In Billions Of Data Points at Clarkesworld aka Why the hell couldnt I have picked a shorter title Seriously though if I had to pick this is probably my favourite story that Ive sold this year and thus far. Lois Tilton also liked this one and it also made her favourite stories list. It was tipped as noteworthy on Fantastic Stories of the Imagination and the Verge and also made Usman Maliks and Nin Harris 2014 bestof lists.

Seriously everyone thank you for your consideration thank you for reading and thank you for your support.

I dont feel Ive read enough in 2014 to come up with a good bestof roundup list but my picks for Campbell award nominees Usman Malik Alyssa Wong Natalia Theodoridou Rachael K Jones Carmen Maria Machado. Every story of theirs Ive read has blown me away. Highly recommended.
