But I've got a hidden present for you that is the equivalent

[sovay]

This post entirely composed of shameless self-promotion, except for the bit where I am shamelessly promoting other authors.

Beyond Binary: Genderqueer and Sexually Fluid Science Fiction and Fantasy, edited by Brit Mandelo, is now available from Lethe Press.

The table of contents includes my short story "Another Coming," originally published in Not One of Us. It also includes stories by Sandra McDonald, Kelley Eskridge, Nalo Hopkinson, Ellen Kushner, Tansy Rayner Roberts, Delia Sherman, Catherynne M. Valente, Sarah Kanning, Liu Wen Zhuang, and that's just the half of it.

It has already gotten some very nice reviews.

I am several states too far away for the book release party, but I bet some of you don't have that excuse.

My fever was already gone by the time I woke up, but this is a nice way to close out the day.

You would have been a shoo-in.

Maybe it will become a series?

Congrats

Excellent! I'm happy for the book, and even happier that your fever's gone. I hope it stays away.

Well, I'm happier for the book; I can get over being sick, but I can't just make an awesome anthology happen.
