Well, the announcements have now been made, and I can say plenty.
But I'm not sure I have many remarks, other than thanks--to Steve and Lethe Press; to the people in my little writer's group (Carter Wilson, Linda Anderson, Dirk Anderson, Ed Bryant, and most recently, Abram Dress) who read the whole manuscript over the course of about 15 months; to Hal Duncan, whose editorial insight is invaluable and with whom I hope to work again; and to Darren and Jack Buford, such good friends to whom Lord Byron's Prophecy is dedicated.
Congratulations to all the nominees in the various categories!
