Don't Lose Your Mind won the Silver Ennie for Best Writing. I was the minor-key element in that -- I did the layout, sure, and came up with the high concept for the book, but it was Benjamin "Bailywolf" Baugh's killer writing and Ryan Macklin's insightful, demanding editing job that honed that crazy blade to a keen edge. I'm very proud of them for this win.
Swashbucklers of the 7 Skies won the Silver Ennie for Best Setting. Chad Underkoffler gets a mountain of credit here as well, though I am all the same still very smug and satisfied about this one, as I really pushed Chad hard to deliver the kind of setting presentation that *I* could remain interested in (I am a notoriously hard sell when it comes to setting writing). Seeing it win was a real validation of the hard work Chad put in to make that goal a reality.
Great job, guys! And thank you so much for being a part of the Hat.
That makes three silvers in three years for us, I think (the first went to Spirit of the Century a couple back). Crazy-pleased, that's me. :)
