Nominated for the 2011 Spinetingler Award: Best Short Story on the Web

I just popped on to Twitter on my lunch break only to find my murderous tale Carpaccio, which was published on Thrillers, Killers 'n' Chillers last year has been nominated for the 2011 Spinetingler Award for Best Short Story on the Web.

This nomination comes from the highly respected Spinetingler Magazine, so to say I'm honoured is an understatement.

There are ten nominees, I know several of the extraordinary authors and look forward to reading their stories as well as those of the authors who are new to me. Best of luck to all, and congratulations on being nominated.

Voting begins next week - I'll post an update when I know more.

Thank you!

  10. Hey Sweetie!
    What an honor for our hideous evils to be listed together! I hadn't caught this story last year and popped over to read just now. Oh my goodness, the goldfish murders with the serial killers is so deliciously weird and creepy! Eeek! I'm honored and thrilled for Pillow Talk to be listed among such wonderful stories as yours, Matt's, Nigel's, Steve's, ect.. Hugs!
