 I am very, very pleased to announce that my short story, &#8220;For Want of a Nail&#8221; is on the Hugo ballot this year. I got to sit in the crowd at Norwescon and watch the Hugo nominations be announced, live.  This was a lot of fun. Especially when my name went up on the screen with the story. Heavens!
