The Best Short Stories and Poems of Polar Borealis Magazine's First Fifteen Issues

Amazing Stories launched at VCon and I am delighted and proud to be listed in the credits, Rhea Rose, as copy editor for this edition. I had a sneak preview of the great stories in the issue! The future is here!

My poem, "Cruising Glaciers," published in 49th Parallels, by Bundoran Press won me my pin

Aurora Award!

Isn't it beautiful?

I was nominated for one for the third time (and now a fourth time) but didn't win.

My poem, "Cruising Glaciers," published in 49th Parallels, by Bundoran Press won me my pin.

I am delighted to add it to my collection. This year they added the word Aurora to the pin.

Well, here it is! I found one. I had the honour of pinning Liz Westbrook-Trenholm with her her lovely piece. It's a wonderful SF Canada tradition. The recipient of the pin, stays at the podium to pin the next winner.

I found out at the pinning ceremony that if a recipient loses a pin it can be replaced! Now I can wear my pins! Fear of losing them kept me from proudly displaying them on my lapels. Normally, you can't get a pin for each win unless the pin style changes, then and only then can you get another.

Here's what the actual award can look like!
