Charlie Finlay’s “Father of Our Country”
2 Comments Published by Deanna Hoak October 8th, 2008 in blogIf you haven’t read Charlie Finlay’s “Father of Our Country”–his analysis of Obama and McCain as seen through the lens of their relationships with their fathers–you should go take a look. It’s one of the most thought-provoking essays on the candidates that I’ve seen yet.

I'm a freelance copyeditor specializing in fantasy and science fiction. SF/F novels I have copyedited have been finalists for (and have sometimes won) the Hugo, Nebula, Arthur C. Clarke, Endeavour, Golden Spur, John W. Campbell Memorial, Quill, Locus, Philip K. Dick, British Science Fiction, British Fantasy, and World Fantasy awards. In 2007 I became the first and only copyeditor ever short-listed for a World Fantasy Award.
