And a special congratulations to Tehani Wessley, editor and publisher at Fablecroft Publishing. Her One Small Step Anthology was co-winner of the anthology section. This gives me a buzz because I have a story in it. Well done to Tehani for selecting such a strong collection of stories.
All the best to the winners and the finalists of the 2013 Aurealis Awards.
