Another success in the series of high-in-the-sky soirees hosted by Rob Sawyer and Carolyn Clink occurred last Saturday. Attendance was international in scope: Buffalo, N.Y. was well represented.

I have read the three chapbooks I brought home with me: “Here There Be Monsters” by Bud Carson; “Sphinx!” by Tony Pi; “Radio Nowhere” by Douglas Smith.

“Radio Nowhere” I liked the best. I am putting it aside for our younger son who is in his third year at Wilfred Laurier University in Waterloo. “Radio Nowhere” is set on the campus of neighbouring University of Waterloo.

All three of these short stories are eligible for nomination for a 2010 Aurora Award .
