Off the list!

One of my goals for Lethe Press has finally been met thanks to sandramcdonald - winning a Lammy. Her collection, Diana Comet and Other Improbable Stories faced down some very tough competition to win in the LGBT Spec Fic category.

Lammys are heavy. Like glass that weighs as much as gold. They can also be traded for crack or carnal relations in NYC. Honest!

Lesson to authors up for an award - please, please write some sort of acceptance speech if only to save your publisher/editor/agent from having to stammer through a half-ass one involving thanking his cat.

Bonus of last night - having Chip Delaney, who was one of my Clarion teachers, tell me he was proud of my accomplishments.
