One of the main goals of any small press is to get the fiction you publish recognized alongside work published by the bigger companies. As small presses often do anthologies, one of the ways that they can do this is to have stories from those books chosen for Best of the Year collections. Gardner Dozois has recently released details of his Best of the Year collection for 2013. The cover features one of my favorite pieces of Jim Burns artwork, but what really caught my eye was the fact that two of the stories in it came from We See A Different Frontier, an anthology of post-colonial SF from The Future Fire, edited by Fabio Fernandes & Djibril al-Ayad. Well done chaps!


Those stories are:

• “A Heap of Broken Images” by Sunny Moraine
• “Fleet” by Sandra McDonald

Oh yeah, that’s one author who uses non-binary pronouns, and one who is famous for stories about a trans woman. *Fist pump!*
