The Drabblecast podcast of my story “Babel Probe” won the People’s Choice Award for Best Story of the Year! My story “Teaching the Pig to Sing” appeared in the May 2010 issue of Analog, my non-fiction essay “How the Future Predicts Science Fiction” appeared in the final issue of The Internet Review of Science Fiction, and “Wind from a Dying Star” appeared on Escape Pod (available as an MP3 file or via iTunes) and got some nice comments in the Escape Pod forums. I also sold “The Last McDougal’s” to Escape Pod for a future podcast. I’ve also added some Upcoming Appearances below, including a talk about my trip to “Mars” at Powell’s Technical Books in Portland.
