It’s awards season, and some of my Wild Cards writers have been covering themselves with glory.

David D. Levine, creator of the Cartoonist and the Recycler, just won SFWA’s ANdre Norton Award for best YA novel, for ARABELLA OF MARS.

And one of our newest Wild Carders, Emma Newman (wait till you meet her character), made the shortlist for the UK’s prestigious Arthur C. Clarke Award, for her novel AFTER ATLAS.

Congratulations, all. Well deserved.

Oh, and speaking of Carrie, check out her post on the Wild Cards blog site, a tribute to her favorite WC character (that she did not create herself), Doctor Tachyon.
