Hoyt's bundle is backlist from another publisher IIRC, so you're unlikely to have ever had it unless you bought paperbacks. Apparently she's kind of w*nky and reactionary on her blog, but she writes historical fantasy fairly well, according to posters in the Reading Recs forum, so I was willing to give her a chance (and she did have her short story collection up in the Baen Free Library for a number of years and put up some free stories every week (now ended) on her blog, so that counts for something).
Sheffield may be a bit of an acquired taste if you're not into hard sf. Maybe skim some samples and remember that Georgia On My Mind was free from Phoenix Pick earlier this year.
