Dissecting the Short Story Voting Has Begun!

I've listed the three choices for April's "Dissecting the Short Story" feature. They are:

• "Nightfall in the Scent Garden" by Claire Humphrey from STRANGE HORIZONS
• "Memories of My Mother" by Ken Liu from DAILY SCIENCE FICTION
• "The Day They Came" by Kali Wallace from LIGHTSPEED.

Voting will be open through April 12th. The resulting analysis of the selected story will be posted in late-April.

While we're on the topic of Dissecting the Short Story, here's a neat little fact: P. N. Elrod's short story "Beach Girl" which was the subject of my fourth Dissecting the Short Story entry won the 2011 Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine Readers Award. Well done, P. N.!
