I read all the short fiction I’m aware of in any given year. Describe your process when working with authors on an anthology. You have an impressive amount of experience with editing horror, science fiction, and fantasy. I had the opportunity to chat with Datlow on her latest anthology, the tenth volume of The Best Horror of the Year - a showcase of 21 tales of terror that could make even a horror connoisseur hesitate to turn off the lamp on her nightstand - which includes fiction by Carmen Maria Machado, Mark Morris, Kaaron Warren, John Langan, Carole Johnstone, Brian Hodge, and others. Impressed yet? Her work has also garnered a mind-blowing five Bram Stoker Awards, ten World Fantasy Awards, and three Shirley Jackson Awards. A master anthologist, Datlow has won several awards, include the Hugo Awards for Best Professional Editor and Best Short Form Editor. She has served as the fiction editor of Omni magazine and Sci Fiction, and currently acquires short fiction for Tor.com. Ellen Datlow has been editing horror, science fiction, and fantasy short fiction for more than three decades.
