Tiptree!

Those of you who follow me on Twitter may have noticed an outburst of vague but delirious joy a couple of days ago. I can now reveal why it was so!

I have been invited to join this year's Tiptree Award jury. I think anyone who has been following my blog for any amount of time would realise how much this means to me! Certainly anyone who, ahem, listened to the most recent Galactic Suburbia would be in absolutely no doubt (for those keeping score, I was invited between the recording of that podcast and the uploading, how's that for coincidence?)

So yes. I am delighted to join Karen Meisner, James Davis Nicoll, Nisi Shawl, and Lynne M Thomas for many long and crunchy conversations about gender this year. Hooray!
