My deep thanks to Ellen for choosing my story, "The Kiddie Pool", to be on her list as well! It is in Philippine Speculative Fiction 6, edited by Nikki Alfar and Kate Osias.

Special, special thanks to Charles Tan for all his effort and support of not just Philippine spec fic, but all spec fic. He's the one sending locally printed publications to North America for editors and other readers to go through.
