Please note the 2011 EPIC finalist list has not been posted on the web site. If you are a SFR Brigade member who is also a finalist, notify us in comments or via email and we'll add you to the list.
Thank you totally! Pauline's book is so amazing I can't believe I'm there with her!
ReplyDeleteHUGE congrats!
ReplyDeleteThat's brilliant, Pauline and Julia. Sweet news for SFR!
ReplyDeleteMy novella Charlie Runs Rings Around the Earth is a finalist in the SF category...and Sunset on Ramree (my WW2 crocodile attack thriller, based on true events) won a nomination for Historical Fiction. This is the bestest year ever.
Congratulations, Robert!
ReplyDeleteI've added yours to the list. Thanks for letting us know.
Oh, the croc attack one sounds fascinating, even if it's not SFR. :)
Many thanks, Julia (thanks for kind words!), Lisa, Robert! And congrats Robert! was excited to see you in there!
ReplyDelete(I also have a short story in Mystery of the Green Mist anthology, though its not SFR.)
Thank you, Laurie! I should clarify, though, Charlie Runs Rings was nominated in SF, not SFR--so (thankfully) I'm not competing against Pauline's novel.
ReplyDeletePauline, I'm part way through Girl Gone Nova and so far it's terrific. Best of luck to you in March!
Way to go Brigaders!
ReplyDeleteOK, I made those tweaks.
ReplyDeleteCongrats again, all.
Thanks, Robert. I think we are all glad we aren't competing. LOL! Hope you continue to enjoy the book. :-)
ReplyDeleteWow, congrats, gang!!!
ReplyDeleteWoo hoo!! Congratulations all of you!
ReplyDeleteCongrats, Robert! I'm with you and Pauline in the nonSFR too - I have a finalist in the Contemporary Erotic Romance Category - Beauty and the Feast. I'm amazed! Thanks everyone!
ReplyDeletethanks and congrats! (that's such a funny title, Julia!)
ReplyDeleteCongtratulstions to you all - fantastic news, well done!
ReplyDeleteMy mistake on Julias title. I thought it was CAPTURED WITH SIREN, but it's CAPTURED (title) with Siren (publisher). I've corrected it.
ReplyDeleteAnd they've finally posted the finalists on the EPIC site (which is how I figured out my blunder).

(Just found another Brigader, Lynn Crain, with a novel nominated in Historic Erotic Romance so I've added it. Did I miss anyone else?)
Just found Gail R. Delaney on the list, too. Added. :)
ReplyDeleteAnyone else?
