Short Story Reviews and Awards

storySouth now has the longlist for the 2007 Millions Writers award, celebrating the best of online fiction. The list of publications is especially helpful if you're looking to read good fiction online or want to know which online publications (there are so many!) are good to send material to.

The May issue of The Short Review is out, with new reviews of oldies but goodies as well as some new collections.

The LA Times Hardcover Bestseller list has not one, no, but two (!!) short story collections in the top ten. I'm celebrating for the form. Jhumpa Lahiri's "Unaccustomed Earth" is still at number one (fourth week on the list) and Tobias Wolff's "Our Story Begins" clocks in at seven (also fourth week).
