If you're voting for the Hugos, Nebulas, Locus, or other awards, please consider this novella about queer love, recovering from trauma, and rewriting your story that CONSISTENTLY resonates with readers. People love this book. More people should know it exists. www.smhallow.com/how-to-survi...

As we enter awards season, I ask you to consider for HOW TO SURVIVE THIS FAIRYTALE, a novella-length queer retelling that focuses on the fairytale characters whose stories aren’t about them.

Who: Kate Hyers and Kree Sullivan bring their debut novels to AuthorCon VI, a celebration of all things writing Where: Doubletree by Hilton Hotel 50 Kingsmill Road Williamsburg, Virginia, 23185 When: Feb. 27—Mar. 1, 2026 #authorconvi #authorcon #bookevent #williamsburgva #booksky
