Today is HG Wells’ birthday – and he must be sending some of his groovy bday vibes my way as my story ‘The Boot’ has just shortlisted for the HG Wells Grand Prize. Will be published in the anthology following the launch and winner announcement on Nov. 17th in Folkestone. Will keep you posted.

Many congratulations. I look forward to reading your story when it is published.

Wow! That’s fantastic–congratulations!
I confess that on the show Warehouse-13 (badly written but oddly addictive US sci-fi), HG Wells is secretly a woman, and apparently they have ruined me, because that is immediately what I was thinking when I saw your post, and I had to do a double-take when you said “he.” Yikes. How embarrassing.
