My story "Hollow", originally published in Aphelion back in February of 2007, was chosen by readers and editors of that magazine as one of their fifteen Best Short Stories of 2007. 

Unfortunately, I hadn't checked their site lately, and this just came to my attention this week, despite having been announced earlier this month.  C'est la vie.

"Hollow" is the fifth story I have published in the pages of Aphelion -- great magazine, always worth a look. 

You can read (or re-read -- your mileage may vary) "Hollow" HERE.  Superheroes, TS Eliot, Cancer. . . you won't be disappointed.
