Acknowledgements
This book would not exist without the invaluable input, support and patience of Gary Budden, George Sandison, Dion Winton-Polak and everyone at Unsung Stories. Enormous gratitude to Andy Cox, Simon Strantzas, Heather Wood, Michael Kelly and all the editors who have supported my work over the past few years. Thanks also to those who have read earlier, scrappier versions of the stories published here and, with their suggestions and feedback, made each of them better by degrees: Thank you Nina Allan, John Clute, John Costello, Ellen Datlow, Samuel R. Delany, Geetanjali Dighe, David Edison, Fabio Fernandes, Neil Gaiman, Jennifer Giesbrecht, Neile Graham, Elizabeth Hand, Sarah Hickingbottom, Joe Hill, Catriona Hopton, James Hoskins, Nicole Idar, Alex Kane, Margo Lanagan, Nick Salestrom, Vicki Lloyd, Usman T. Malik, Liam Meilleur, Shannon Peavey, Bob Pomfret, Kelly Sandoval, Allison Solano, Michael Taylor, Hugo Xiong, JY Yang, Les Young, E Lily Yu and, especially Helena Bell who personally kicked almost all of these stories until they stopped squeaking. Finally, thank you to Helen Marshall, without whose encouragement, arm-twisting and blackmail, this manuscript would not only be poorer, it would have languished in some lonely drawer and become reduced to slightly unsettling bedding material for mice.
