What books are on your summer reading list this year?
N.S. Dolkart I'm hoping to read Nnedi Okorafor's "The Book of Phoenix," since I really liked "Who Fears Death" and Nnedi's the guest of honor at this year's Readercon. On the same theme of reading books by guests of honor, our big family vacation this year is to Helsinki for Worldcon, so I'll see what I can find and read by GOH Nalo Hopkinson before we get there.

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?
N.S. Dolkart Look up standard manuscript format for fiction, and adhere to it. Beyond that, keep writing, join a supportive and honest critique group, and don't stop when you get rejections. You will get rejections, and probably a lot of them. I sent 114 queries before an agent offered to represent me.
