Looks like I can talk about this now:

"[T]hough the competition was aimed at finding just one winner, the judges were so impressed with the quality of many entries they've decided to extend the prize.

'We had an incredibly strong shortlist of the best 25 entries,' explains Guerrier. '[...] we felt our shortlist was of such quality that it deserved a whole book of its own.'

This special anthology, deftly titled How The Doctor Changed My Life, will be published in late 2008. The 24 runners up are:

Violet Addison; Steven Alexander; Mike Amberry; Arnold T Blumberg; Anna Bratton; John Callaghan; Dann Chinn; Stephen Dunn; Richard Goff; Peter Hallbright; Tim Lambert; JR Loflin; Nick May; James C McFetridge; Simon Moore; Michael Montoure; LM Myles; Einar Olgeirsson; Bernard O'Toole; Andrew K Purvis; Michael Rees; Mark Smith; Chris Wing; Caleb Woodbridge."

Nick May; James C McFetridge; Simon Moore; Michael Montoure; LM Myles;

I'd totally be giving them a hard time about their alphabetization prowess. Or lack thereof.

Yeah, and these are the people who are going to be editing me. :)

Well, maybe the folks who edit their press releases aren't the same folks who edit their other publications.

In any case, I look forward to reading your new story, "Dictator What and the Plat of the Dales".
