Not Quite The End of the World Just Yet is an Aurealis Awards Finalist
The short-lists for the 2018 Aurealis Awards went up yesterday, posting the finalist lists that bring together some of the best Australian sci-fi and fantasy of the year. Not Quite The End of the World Just Yet is one of four finalists in best collection this year, and shares the list with some pretty distinguished company:
BEST COLLECTION
- Not Quite the End of the World Just Yet, Peter M Ball (Brain Jar Press)
- Phantom Limbs, Margo Lanagan (PS Publishing)
- Tales from The Inner City, Shaun Tan (Allen & Unwin)
- Exploring Dark Short Fiction #2: A Primer to Kaaron Warren, Kaaron Warren (Dark Moon Books)
I’m largely off social media these days, so I’ve missed the frenzy of posting that took place yesterday as everyone started with the congratulations. This makes me very, very late in offering my own felicitations to all the finalists, including an incredible number of friends and colleagues who have made the lists.
Broad Release for Winged, With Sharp Teeth
The first release in my Short Fiction Lab series, Winged, with Sharp Teeth, spent three months exclusive to Amazon and available to Unlimited subscribers.
Now that it’s exclusivity period is up, I’ve been uploading it to all the usual ebook vendors outside of the Amazon kingdom: Apple Books, Kobo, Barnes and Noble, and many others. You can find the link to your preferred store via the books2read link, or set Books2Read to automatically route you towards your preferred bookstore when you click.
This also means that you can no longer read the story on Kindle Unlimited, but there’s a few days left in which you can pick up the second, stand-alone Short Fiction Lab release before it finishes its exclusive run next week.
