Lambda Awards
Two of the short story collections I was in last year have both been made finalists in this year's Lambda Awards. Yeah!!!
'Serendipity' is in the Fiction Anthology category.
And 'Best Gay Erotica 05' is in the err..., Erotica Section.
'Best Gay Erotica' got a nice review here
And Serendipity here -
Both stories were first on abctales at some point.
And that's it. It was a nice surprise on coming back from Thailand, which was fantastic. Thailand was fantastic. I read loads, wrote some, ate lots of nice food, had massages, and went to a health spa.

Well done, Drew - I've always said there's short stories on here far better than many in anthologies, so I'm glad to see talent recognised. Hope it sells too!
Emma
Congratulations Drew.
Drew
Thanks all.
Justyn, 3 days Bangkok, 9 days Koh Samui. I liked Bangkok a lot more than I thought I would and I loved Koh Samui. I felt completely alive for the first time in years.
We were on the north shore of Koh Samui, near the fishing village of Boh Phut. Fresh fish every night, and restaurants literally right on the beach. It was completely wonderful. Very quiet. I read 5 books - Murakami's A Wild Sheep Chase, and The Wind Up Bird Chronicle, Coupland's All Families are Psychotic, Strangers (a history of homosexuality in the 19th century) by Robb, and Che Guevera's Motorcycle Diaries.
Now I can't sleep. It's 3:30 and I've switched the computer on to do some writing.
Drew
Sorry Liana, where did you go?
Liana
Belgrade - didnt you get my mail?
Drew
No. And I have problems mailing you - a couple of times its come back as undeliverable.
