Hey, it turns out that I am the recipient of the Gaylactic Spectrum Award for Best Novel in 2008, for The Stratford Man (that's Ink & Steel and Hell & Earth, treated as the single book they properly are).
The Gaylactic Spectrum Awards honor outstanding works of science fiction, fantasy and horror which include significant positive explorations of gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgendered characters, themes, or issues.
It was awarded at Gaylaxicon while I was on an island.
