For your Hugo consideration: "Identity Theft" novella

For those of you who can nominate for this year's Hugo Awards (everyone who had a membership in last year's World Science Fiction Convention in Glasgow or in this year's World Science Fiction Convention in Los Angeles), may I politely draw to your attention my novella "Identity Theft," first published in Down These Dark Spaceways, a May 2005 anthology of hard-boiled-detective SF edited by Mike Resnick for the Science Fiction Book Club.

The full text of the story is available as an Adobe PDF file and as a Microsoft Word file (so that you can format it any way you wish, or synch it to your PDA).

"Identity Theft" is a current finalist for the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America's Nebula Award for Best Novella of the Year, and has already won Spain's 6,000-euro Premio UPC de Ciencia Ficción.

CANADIANS, PLEASE NOTE: "Identity Theft" is also eligible for the Aurora Awards to be presented this year at Toronto Trek.
