A Catalog of Storms, by Fran Wilde
A Catalog of Storms is nominated for a Nebula this year. Fran Wilde uses her Bone Universe literary understanding of wind and its emotional content for this story--really it's that understanding boiled down to its essence. You control storms by naming them, just as you would emotions. Sacrifice and hope are also here. A fun little item to read.
