I have five works on the 2013 Locus Recommended Reading List, in four categories: Blood Oranges (novel), Black Helicopters (novella), The Ape's Wife and Other Stories (collection), and "The Road of Needles" and "The Prayer of Ninety Cats" (short story).

Nice. Not quite a sweep, but very cool.

"The constant manifestation of the author's lesbian orientation can be a bit tedious."

I especially like the use of "manifestation," as if lesbianism were some kind of horrid Edwardian apparition.

Yeah, I suppose if I'd had a novelette....

Aye that. I saw it as ectoplasmic, oozing out of Caitlìn as though her stories were spirit photographs. Was it very wrong of me to giggle?
