Yes, I did and I'm thrilled.
For the usual reason that I love to win awards.
But also, because it's a beautiful one, the base made of rock (granite, I think--also very heavy). In addition, it's the first I've won since 2005(when SCIFICTION closed down)and the first I've won in the new category of short fiction editor. Which means it's for my anthology work rather than as a magazine editor.
Thank you to all my fellow nominees who help keep short fiction alive and to all the voters.
