Tor.com is a Locus Finalist!

As shouts of surprise and delight ring out over the blogosphere in response to the 2010 Locus Award Finalist list, Tor.com has a few shouts of surprise and delight of our own: not only were our stories “First Flight” by Mary Robinette Kowal and “Eros, Philia, Agape” by Rachel Swirsky finalists in the Best Novelette category, but Tor.com itself is a finalist in the Best Magazine category—a first for us! Congratulations to Mary and Rachel, to Patrick Nielsen Hayden (who edits most of our prose fiction), and to all the other nominees. The awards will be given out at the Locus Awards Ceremony, held during the Science Fiction Awards Weekend, which is June 25th to 27th in Seattle, Washington.
