Hey all! I've had a few e-mails about this (and thanks for them), so I'll post a quick blog about it!
Destiny's War is not eligible for the 2013 Aurora Awards. Only a special bundle was released in 2013, but the book's actual publication date was January 31, 2014. That gives you a whole year to read it before next year's Aurora Awards - you're welcome!
My only eligible work this year is The Kevlar Canoe, a short story included in Masked Mosaic: Canadian Super Stories, edited by Claude Lalumière and Camille Alexa (Tyche Books). It's a strange little tale that re-imagines the French-Canadian folktale La chasse-galerie (the flying canoe). I knew it was weird when Claude admitted he believed it was the weirdest story in the anthology. High praise coming from a fine writer of weird stories!
I read this story at quite a few cons this year (because it has a Kevlar canoe and therefore is awesome), but if you haven't read it, drop me a line and I'll get it to you - possibly by reading it to you over the phone!
Nominations are open until April 12, 2014. Check out the website here.
Cheers!
