For the second year in a row, I managed to make the Million Writers Award list of notable stories published online. “The Robot Sorcerer†is one of four stories from InterGalactic Medicine Show to appear on the list.
I was surprised to find my story on the list, as I had not seen it on the lists of reader-nominated or editor-nominated stories. However, the preliminary judges are not restricted to selecting from the nominated stories, so one of them must have liked “The Robot Sorcerer.â€
Congrats also to my friends who made the list: Ken Scholes, Mary Robinette Kowal, Tobias Buckell, Eugie Foster, Jay Lake, Cat Rambo, Jim Hines, Christie Skipper Ritchotte, Aliette de Bodard, and John Brown.
