“It Takes Two,” originally published in Jonathan Strahan’s Eclipse 3 a couple of months ago, has been chosen for inclusion in Gardner Dozois’ The Year’s Best Science Fiction: Twenty-Seventh Annual Collection. It will also be the lead story in The Best Science Fiction and Fantasy of the Year: Volume 4, edited by Strahan. So I’m feeling pretty pleased with myself. Write it once, get paid for it three times. The little novelette that could.
I had such a blast writing that story. I’d forgotten how much fun short fiction can be. It’s a full, glorious gallop from start to finish, nothing like the walk-trot, walk-trot and occasional tumble-pellmell-down-the-scree long haul of a big novel. I think I might have to try another one soon.

That's great news, congratulations Nicola!
Thank you. Happiness in the Eskridge-Griffith household.
Very cool! And how great that more people will be exposed to the story.
One thing that I don't think has been mentioned here is how some of the science aspects of the story have been discussed in some of your blog posts. At least in some general way – I loved that. And have been kind of surprised that no one has brought it up before now. It added another level of enjoyment of the story for me.
Congratulations! That's wonderful news.
jennifer, I keep meaning to search out the links then forgetting and/or getting overwhelmed by the gotta-get-it-done-before-the-end-of-the-year list.
Malinda, thank you. And congratulations on your Morris Award nomination for Ash.
Congrats!
Congratulations! :-)
