Dave Truesdale has a recommended reading list up at Black Gate. Dave says:
[The list] contains 214 stories from various 2007 print publications only: magazines, single author collections containing one or more original stories, and original anthologies. They come from some 35 publications originally published in 2007. This is by no means a complete list of the print publications featuring original fiction from 2007, but it does represent all of the major magazines, as well as quite a number of the smaller venues. Many of them were purchased, with an equal number received as review copies, for which I gratefully thank the publishers.So, without further ado, here are the stories from the things I edited that Dave recommends.

here's what I don't get - why is it that the reaction to ANYTHING Truesdale writes/posts isn't, "Damn, is that crazy mofo still alive? Hahahaha what a fossil!" ?
Every time you take Dave Truesdale seriously an angel gets anally probed. Just don't do it.
Wow, that's harsh. :) Why can't you just be happy for me? :P
I am extremely happy for you, darling. However, I really feel like it's never a good idea to take Truesdale seriously, even if he's praising you. because he is a racist, sexist nutjob. And any time we allow him to say stuff without completely dismissing him, we encourage him to continue his ways.
That said, he's exactly correct in choosing all those stories because they kick ass. But their ass kickness is inherent, therefore even the likes of Truesdale can see that ;)
