We couldn’t be happier here at coeur de lion after hearing that Margo Lanagan won a well-deserved World Fantasy Award over the weekend for her truly wonderful X6 novella, ‘Sea-Hearts’. This caps a fantastic year for our little anthology which has scooped an Aurealis, Ditmar and Sir Julius Vogel award and made the Tiptree Honour [...] Over at the Trentonomicon, X6 author Trent Jamieson has decided to share pretty much all he knows about writing, which – given he’s sold over sixty short stories, bagged more than one Aurealis Award, and his new Death Works trilogy is currently being published by Orbit – is quite a bit.

As you might [...] The Shirley Jackson Award is presented each year for outstanding achievement in the literature of psychological suspense, horror, and the dark fantastic. Margo Lanagan’s X6 novella ‘Sea-Hearts’ was shortlisted in the novella section this year but was pipped at the post by Nick Antosca’s ‘Midnight Picnic’. Congratulations to all the shortlisted and winning authors. See [...] Gardner Dozois’s Year’s Best Science Fiction – Twenty-Seventh Annual Collection has just hit the bookshops with some very nice comments about coeur de lion in the 2009 Summation: ‘One of the year’s best anthologies was published by an ultra-small press in Australia, and is going to be very difficult for most readers to find.
