Edmund R. Schubert (born c. 1980) is an American author and editor best known for his work in the fields of science fiction and fantasy, though some of his short stories are mysteries, including one that was a preliminary nominee for an Edgar Award in 2006 for Best Short Story.[1] In 2015, he was nominated for the Hugo Award for Best Editor (Short Form)[2] but subsequently withdrew himself from consideration due to the block voting tactics which had been used to shape the ballot, stating that "I can't in good conscience complain about the deck being stacked against me, and then feel good about being nominated for an award when the deck gets stacked in my favor. That would make me a hypocrite."[3] He has also written for and edited several business magazines.
