Michael H. Payne (born February 10, 1965) is an American science fiction and fantasy writer, cartoonist, and reviewer. He holds an M.A. in Classics from the University of California, Irvine, and has hosted the Darkling Eclectica, a radio program originally on Saturday mornings, now on Sunday afternoons, on KUCI for more than 25 years. Payne's novel ''The Blood Jaguar'' (Tor Books, 1998) and most of his short stories utilize talking animal characters: his novelette "Crow's Curse" won third place in the Writers of the Future contest in 1991 and his short story "Familiars" won the Ursa Major Award in 2002. His cartoons as well, published in the ''New Horizons'' anthology from Shanda Fantasy Arts and on his websites, take animals, give them intelligence, and examine what sorts of multi-cultural societies they might form. As a reviewer, Payne is a past contributor to Tangent magazine, both in its original print edition and in its early online form, and his capsule book reviews began appearing in 1999 on the website of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America before being moved in August 2009 to the "members only" section of the site's discussion forum. Payne is the head co-ordinator for SFWA's Circulating Book Plan and was named the 2013 recipient of the Kevin O'Donnell Jr. Service to SFWA award for his work on the Plan. He was the Registrar for the Web Cartoonist's Choice Awards and is one of the final two participants in the Daily Grind Iron Man Challenge with his webcomic ''Daily Grind.'' He lives on the Balboa Peninsula in Newport Beach, California, where he works for the public library and is a cantor and guitar player at the local Catholic church. ==Bibliography== * "Rat's Reputation," short story, FurVersion #16, 05/89; reprinted on the ''tomorrowsf'' web site, 04/97; reprinted again in the Best of Show anthology from Sofawolf Press, 07/03 * "Crow's Curse," novelette, third prize winner, Writers of the Future contest, printed in volume VII of their anthology, 08/91; reprinted in volume I of the ''Best of the Writers of the Future'', 09/00 * "River Man," short story, ''Asimov's Science Fiction'', 08/93; tied for third place, Asimov's Readers’ Award; honorable mention, Year's Best SF; translated into Russian in Esli, 08/07; reprinted in the Already Among Us anthology from Legion Printing, 07/12 * "A Bag of Custard," short story, Asimov's Science Fiction, 02/94; honorable mention, Year's Best SF * "One Thin Dime," short story, ''Tomorrow Speculative Fiction'', 10/94; honorable mention, Year's Best SF; reprinted in the anthology ''Dragons'', 12/95 * "My Vampire Cat, or Whatever", short story, ''Tomorrow Speculative Fiction'', 06/95; preliminary nominee, Theodore Sturgeon Memorial Award, 1996; honorable mention, Year's Best SF * "Painting the Roses Red," short story, ''Tomorrow Speculative Fiction'', 08/95; honorable mention, Year's Best SF * "Why I'm Traveling With a Talking Cow," short story, ''Marion Zimmer Bradley's Fantasy Magazine'', Winter 1996 * "How the First Question Mark was Built," short story, ''Tomorrow Speculative Fiction'', 08/96 * "Rat's Reckoning," novelette, on the tomorrowsf web site, 06/97 * "The Language of Ghosts," short story, ''Asimov's Science Fiction'', 08/97; tied for 6th place, Asimov's Readers’ Award; honorable mention, Year's Best SF * "Kily's Kindling," novelette, on the tomorrowsf web site, 08/97 * "Cold, Cold Ground," short story, ''Mythagoras'', Summer 1997 * ''The Blood Jaguar'', serialized novel on the tomorrowsf web site; Tor Books 12/98; honorable mention, 1999 William L.
