David D. LevineScience Fiction Author

“Babel Probe,” “Moonlight on the Carpet,” and “Titanium Mike Saves the Day” all received Honorable Mentions in Gardner Dozois’s latest Year’s Best Science Fiction.

The signed and numbered hardcover of my collection Space Magic is now available from Wrigley-Cross Books.

I sold short story “Aggro Radius” to Gamer Fantastic, an anthology edited by Martin Greenberg and Kerrie Hughes. I also received my contributor’s copy of the French edition of F&SF, containing “Titanium Mike à la rescousse!”

I sold short story “Midnight at the Center Court” to Witch Way to the Mall, an anthology edited by Esther Friesner.

I sold short story “Joy is the Serious Business of Heaven” to Realms of Fantasy (my third sale there).

The Mammoth Book Of Extreme Fantasy, edited by Mike Ashley, is now available for pre-order. It includes “Charlie the Purple Giraffe Was Acting Strangely” as well as many other fine stories by authors such as Michael Swanwick and Howard Waldrop.

“Titanium Mike Saves the Day” did not win the Nebula Award, but it will appear in the anthology Nebula Awards Showcase 2009.

I have been accepted into the Launch Pad Astronomy Workshop! This is a NASA-funded “crash course” in modern astronomy for SF writers. Other attendees include Alma Alexander, Steven Gould, Deanna Hoak, Mary Robinette Kowal, Nancy Kress, Jay Lake, David Marusek, and Laura Mixon.

Three of my stories are now available for purchase at the Sony eBook store (for the Sony eBook Reader or free eBook Library software on your PC — not Mac, alas).

My short story collection Space Magic will have a signed and numbered limited-edition hardcover edition, available exclusively from Wrigley-Cross Books.
