Worthy of award nomination?\u201d It\u2019s awkward and just on the edge of feeling boastful, which is absolutely not what I\u2019m about. And I always, always, always have to resist the urge to be self-effacing or add a bunch of explanations.<\/p>\n<p>At the exact same time when I create these blog posts, when I list out some of the things I accomplished in the year that just past, I\u2019m usually really proud.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s that exact same feeling this year, of course. In fact, I *may* have copy\/pasted some text directly from last year&#8217;s blog post LOL This year is a bit different in that some of the things I wrote and loved the most were &#8216;published&#8217; exclusively on Patreon, which means they are not actually eligible for awards. Because I like to keep things complicated, I guess.<\/p>\n<p>Without further ado and while recognizing this is a little awkward, but with a lot of pride, let me share some of the things I had published last year which may be eligible for award nomination:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Poems:<br \/>\n<\/strong>\u201cWait, Hope\u201d,\u00a0<em>Star*Line<\/em>, Winter 2023 (With Joseph Halden)*<br \/>\n\u201cThe Deal\u201d,\u00a0<em>The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction<\/em>, January\/February 2023 (With Beth Cato)<br \/>\n\u201cLucky Shot\u201d,\u00a0<em>The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction,\u00a0<\/em>January\/February 2023 (With Beth Cato)<br \/>\n\u201cBirthday Cake\u201d,\u00a0<em>Dreams and Nightmares<\/em>, January 2023 (With Beth Cato)<br \/>\n\u201cThe Nothings\u201d,\u00a0<em>Utopia Science Fiction<\/em>, February 2023 (With Beth Cato)<br \/>\n\u201cThree Years\u201d,\u00a0<em>Polar Starlight<\/em>\u00a0#10, May 2023 (With Leslie Van Zwol)<br \/>\n\u201cBreathe\u201d,\u00a0<em>Polar Starlight<\/em> #11, September 2023 (With Leslie Van Zwol)*<br \/>\n\u201cThe Permanence of Stone\u201d,\u00a0<em>Star*Line<\/em>, Fall 2023 (With Beth Cato)<br \/>\n\u201cValue Measure\u201d,\u00a0<em>Dreams and Nightmares<\/em>, September 2023 (With Joseph Halden)<br \/>\n\u201cTen-Four\u201d,\u00a0<em>Polar Borealis<\/em> #27, October 2023*<br \/>\n\u201cBreath Between Battles\u201d,\u00a0<em>The Quiet Ones: Vol. 2, Issue 3 \u2013 The End, Part Two<\/em>, December 2023 (With Beth Cato)*<\/p>\n<p><strong>Short Stories:<br \/>\n<\/strong>\u201cSnake Bit\u201d,\u00a0<em>Swords and Sorcery Magazine<\/em>, January 2023 (With Jarrod K.
