Looking through my copies of ASIM I found Carine Heidmann and after a quick (and then slow) read of her short story I figured she’d be good target for today’s letter.

I don’t have a lot of information about her, the best I can find is published in the back of ASIM.

It seems she writes with her foot, or possibly her feet…or at least that is how she is described

Having always had one foot in writing…

She grew up in South Africa but has since seen the light and moved to the beauty of New Zealand where she endeavours to write and earn a living.

Anyway, back to the short story. It’s called The Prize and I was quite happy with it. I skimmed it at first just to check it was science fiction but was attracted enough by it to reread it properly. Yes, it is science fiction and quite nicely done. Fully recommend you go to ASIM and buy it, and probably buy more while you’re at it to make the postage worth it, don’t mention I sent you as I don’t get commission from them and I couldn’t possibly have them thinking I’m a fan or something…I have almost all of them but you know…

While you’re on the computer you can follow her on Twitter or GoodReads.
