I don't think I've mentioned it here yet, but at World Fantasy Convention in Calgary a few weeks ago it was announced that I will be one of the judges of the 2009 World Fantasy Awards, along with Ellen Klages, Delia Sherman, Peter Heck, and Jenny Blackford.

The official site for the World Fantasy Awards has been updated with the information, and already this week I've started receiving books for consideration in the mail (technically not the first I've received, since I was handed a couple of books for consideration at the convention itself).

I'm going to be doing a lot of reading in the next year...
