The 23rd Annual L. Ron Hubbard Achievement Awards was an interesting event. It was held at the Caltech Athenaeum, right under the temporary home where Albert Einstein stayed while he was there! Anyway, it’s always fun to get dressed up and play adult. I was excited for the winners, but depressed knowing that they made it and I did not. Of course, I didn’t even submit for this year. Seeing icons from the world of SF/F was also a humbling experience. So, all in all, it was a mixed bag. Will I be on that stage next year? I certainly hope so. My motivation is up right now, and I’m polishing my novelette “Bravo Tunnel.” I think it’s good. I’ll find out soon enough what they think.
