I'm reliably informed by my blogmate that Overturned, our co-written story that was included in Elastic Press's Subtle Edens anthology, has been longlisted for the British Fantasy Society's Best Novella Award. Thanks to whoever voted, even if only to have allowed me the opportunity for that terrible pun in this post's title.
The winners will be announced at Fantasycon 2009 in September and only BFS members or attendees of Fantasycon (08 or 09) are eligible to vote. So if you are, and you liked the story, please do vote. You can do so here: BFS Awards Longlist 2009, which is where I just found all that information out.

Sexy free Christmas treat
As it's the season, we're giving stuff away free. Well, just the one bit of stuff. A shiny copy of Subtle Edens, featuring the story Overturned, by one Neil Ayres and Aliya Whiteley, to the person that leaves the best festive-related joke in the comments trail.
Oh, and the Tate Modern have an SF competition running. Here it is. Thanks to Jenni for the heads-up.
And the title of this post? I wondered if it's bring in a batch of new traffic.

Responding to Aliya responding to David
The time-travelling one with the cure for malaria
An SF novelette called Skipping Stones, due for serialised inclusion in Farrago's Wainscot. This is the story's third acceptance. One of the other publishers turnedaround the decision to publish and the second one folded. This story was co-written with Ekaterina Sedia.
The novel condensed into a short story which is actually rather good
A proper, literary short story this one, covering the lifetime of a couple and its family.
The science fiction gangster book with Aliya
Kind of the purpose of this blog, if someone publishes it. 'Under consideration' at the moment
The story with Aliya
This one is called Overturned and is split into three viewpoints: a girl's fantasy, a crime caper and a relationship breakdown
The other story with Aliya
Another story that was accepted, sat on for about two years and then the publisher decided not to release the book. This is in a kind of 2000ad post-apocalypse stylee
And uncompleted:
The Novel
I've actually been making some more headway on this recently. Who knows, might have it finished before dead o'clock
The Young Adult
I lost the manuscript. I need to re-write the whole thing.
The science fiction rock musical
Not as bad as We Will Rock You sounds. It has shades of Christopher Marlowe, Mary Shelley, Alice in Chains and Creedence Clearwater Revival
There is more, but that's all you're getting for now.
