Shirley Jackson Award

I just found out today that Logorrhea is a finalist for the Shirley Jackson award! Click on the link to see the whole list, but here's the anthology category:

ANTHOLOGY
* At Ease with the Dead, edited by Barbara and Christopher Roden (Ash-Tree Press)
* Dark Delicacies 2, edited by Del Howison and Jeff Gelb (Running Press)
* Inferno, edited by Ellen Datlow (Tor)
* Logorrhea, edited by John Klima (Bantam Spectra)
* Wizards, edited by Jack Dann and Gardner Dozois (Berkley)

There's a lot of good stuff in this list, and considering that the aware is for "outstanding achievement in the literature of psychological suspense, horror, and the dark fantastic," I'm sure what sort of chance I have. All the same, I'm very excited to be nominated! Congrats to everyone who made the final ballot!

The award is being given out at this year's Readercon, on Sunday July 20 in Boston, MA. I've always loved going to Readercon, should I make the trip?
