Extreme Cool Person Cooties

I got my contributor's copy of The Mammoth Book of Extreme Fantasy this morning. Let's have a look at this:

Andy Duncan, Orson Scott Card, Peter Crowther, me, Howard Waldrop, Liz Williams, David D. Levine, Jonathan Lethem, Jeff Ford, William Hope Hodgson, Michael Moorcock, Tim Pratt, Christopher Priest, Michael Swanwick, Ted Chiang, Paul di Filippo...

I am examining the possibility that if I roll around a lot I can convince some cool people cooties to stick to me. I am the newest, greenest kid in this book. Honest. I checked the bio blurbs.

So yes.

1) Daaaaamn.

2) This looks like it'll be one hell of a good read.

Now I go to work.
