Charile Jane Anders is having a great year for her short fiction this year. I've really enjoyed everything of hers I've read so far this year. I first became aware of her about 3 years ago, when "Six Months, three days" was published on Tor.com. I loved that short which went on to win both the Hugo and the Nebula. So after that I started seeking out Charlie Jane Anders's stories. And last year they were good, but not great. (None of her work ended up in my 2013 short fiction recs.) But this year all of her stuff is just amazing. Here are links to her 2014 stories online:

The Cartography of Sudden Death

The Unfathomable Sisterhood of Ick

Break! Break! Break!

As Good As New

In other short fiction news I just finished Zen Cho's collection Spirits Abroad which was excellent. Highly recommended!

Also if you are interested in it the state you short SFF Renay has a intersting post about the lack of a short fiction review community over at [community profile] ladybusiness. (She even mentions me as someone with good taste in short fiction. Pardon me, while I try to doge my imposture syndrome.)
