Lammies!

Last night, Death By Silver won the Lambda Literary Award for LGBT SF/Fantasy/Horror!  Amy and I are both completely delighted, not least because we had pretty much convinced ourselves that we weren't going to win.  The nominees this year were exceptional, and the books ranged from solid SF to strong fantasy and pretty much everything in between.

Congratulations!
did you find a suitably Victorian beverage?

[mescott]

Thank you! I did! (I realize that tea should be sufficient for all of life's changes, but I did want something a bit more... elevating. I don't actually like absinthe, though, and I didn't have any proper whiskey, only bourbon. I did have gin, but Victorian gin drinks are generally deadly, so I settled on a nice glass of brandy, from a distillery founded in the 1870s. :-)

That's fantastic, congratulations! I'll look forward to the sequel too. I'm one of those who came to this book courtesy of byslantedlight's hard reccing, btw. She deserves a pimping award.

[mescott]

Thank you! And you're right, byslantedlight has been wonderful with the recs. She also has some of the best icons ever.... ;-)

[miwahni]

Well, they're Pros icons, of course they're the best :-)

*G* Can't be beat!

Oh, congratulations! That is lovely. And I enjoyed the heck out of the book, by the way. I love a good Victoriana book, when the details are right.

[mescott]

Thank you very much! I love getting to play in the period.

Belated congratulations! That's wonderful. I'm also happy to hear the sequel is in the works...*bounce bounce*
