* Hugo Awards rules for this category state: “The editor of at least four (4) anthologies, collections or magazine issues primarily devoted to science fiction and/or fantasy, at least one of which was published in 2008.” Shimmer: The Pirate Issue is my fourth qualifying editorial experience, but it came out in 2007, so I’m not listing it there beside my name, which space is reserved to point out 2008 work.
