Since then he has worked in publishing, computer programming, and—since completing his Master's degree in Library and Information Science in December 2005—librarianship. He has since returned to the Midwest and currently works as the Assistant Director at the Waukesha Public Library. In 2007, Klima edited the anthology ''Logorrhea'', an anthology of twenty-one short stories, each of which was based on a different winning word from the Scripps National Spelling Bee.〔(), review of Logorrhea from website The Short Review〕 The anthology was nominated for a World Fantasy Award for Best Anthology. Theodora Goss's story from the anthology "The Singing of Mount Abora" won the World Fantasy Award for Best Short Fiction. He also edited a reprint anthology of fairy tale retellings called ''Happily Ever After'' that was published by Night Shade Books in 2011. Klima ran a successful Kickstarter campaign with Lynne M. Thomas and Michael Damien Thomas in early 2013 to fund a speculative nightclub anthology titled ''Glitter & Mayhem''. The book features an introduction by Amber Benson and stories from writers like Christopher Barzak, Maurice Broaddus, Daryl Gregory, Maria Dahvana Headley, Seanan McGuire, Tim Pratt, Diana Rowland, and many more. ''Glitter & Mayhem'' will be published by Apex Publications and debut at LoneStarCon 3 in August 2013. Also in 2007, Klima created the initial version of the Best Editor Wiki in order to provide a place for people nominating and voting for either the Hugo Award for Best Editor Short Form or the Hugo Award for Best Editor Long Form to see what work an editor had done the past year. In 2008, Anne KG Murphy and Cheryl Morgan〔() Announcement of Editor Wiki changing hands from John Klima to Anne KG Murphy & Cheryl Morgan〕 moved the wiki to its now-defunct location. ==Awards== *Nominated: Special Award: Non-Professional, 2007 World Fantasy Award *Nominated: Special Award: Non-Professional, 2008 World Fantasy Award *Winner: Best Fanzine: ''Electric Velocipede'', 2009 Hugo Award *Nominated: Special Award: Non-Professional, 2009 World Fantasy Award *Nominated: Special Award: Non-Professional, 2010 World Fantasy Award 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「John Klima (editor)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
