Celebrating the Birth . . . Genevieve Valentine

Starting a new "column" at QuasarDragon where we celebrate the birth of important genre (SF, Fantasy, and Horror) writers and other important dates.  Of course, this will also be an excuse to link to great free fiction.

Genevieve Valentine (born July 1, 1981) is an excellent young writer whose first novel won the Crawford Award for a first fantasy novel, and was nominated for the Nebula.  For more biographical information visit her website.  Be sure to check out some or all of her free stories listed below (likely an incomplete sampling) and if you like what you read/listen to, then grab her novel at Amazon.
