I bookmarked this one. Thanks for the link.

What does it say about me that I read through that list of names and thought "N.K. Jemisin, I've read her on LJ/DW, Amal El-Mohtar sounds familiar, Shweta Narayan, another LJ/DWer, Mike Allen - oh some interchangeable white guy, I guess they needed one of those".

It says you have some idea of why I posted about the book. (I don't know Mike Allen's race, though.)

I have no idea about Mike Allen's race either, which is part of why it amuses me how my brain went "interchangeable white guy".

[aquaeri]

On the assumption that this is him (namely editor of "Clockwork Phoenix, tales of beauty and strangeness"), he looks like a white guy to me.

Shweta is in my writers' group; her story in this one is awesome.
