I love to time travel, but since I can’t do it in real life, I have to fake it. Which is why each year, when the Nebula Awards weekend<\/a> rolls around, I take a look back at the one that occurred exactly ten years earlier, to see who we used to be back then. <\/p>\n

Joe Haldeman and I smooch that year’s SFWA Grand Master, Anne McCaffrey<\/strong><\/p>\n
