Here is what he said on his Web site about this story: "The second story I wrote and the first one I published, "The Old Equations," appeared in Lightspeed magazine and went on to be named a finalist for the Nebula Award and to be shortlisted for the StorySouth Million Writers and Theodore Sturgeon Memorial awards. I enjoyed Jake Kerr's Old Equations story very much. I don't read too many stories told from the disabled person's point of view and I liked that a lot.Īuthors also included Bonnie Jo Stufflebeam who had a Nebula Award finalist novelette this year (but in this collection, she had two short stories). This was a detective story but was particularly interesting because this detective is blind. Volume 2 includes William Ledbetter's Nebula-winning novelette The Long Fall Up (and I can certainly understand and agree why this novelette won!).Īlso, I particularly enjoyed Afterimage by J.
