World Fantasy Award winners

Monday, November 3rd, 2008

I’m sure that almost everyone who is interested in who won the 2008 World Fantasy Awards will already know but for the sake of posterity, here they are:

Life Achievement
Leo & Diane Dillon
Patricia McKillip

Novel
Ysabel Guy Gavriel Kay [Viking Canada/Penguin Roc]

Novella
Illyria Elizabeth Hand [PS Publishing]

Short Story
“Singing of Mount Abora” Theodora Goss [Logorrhea, Bantam Spectra]

Anthology
Inferno: New Tales of Terror and the Supernatural Ellen Datlow, Editor [Tor]

Collection
Tiny Deaths Robert Shearman [Comma Press]

Artist
Edward Miller

Special Award-Professional
Peter Crowther for PS Publishing

Special Award-Non-professional

I would have done them sooner but I literally just got back from a post-awards judge’s panel, drinks then dinner; then more drinks. More on the con later but I’m also very pleased to let people know that we’ll continue to have some Aussie representation on the judging panel with Jenny Blackford being named a judge (along with Peter Heck, Ellen Klages, Chris Roberson and Delia Sherman – a great panel).

A quick World Fantasy Award update

Thursday, October 30th, 2008

I’m happily ensconced in Calgary ahead of the World Fantasy Convention.  It officially begins tomorrow but given that Kate and I already ran into our first fellow attendee in the hotel lift this morning, it’s good enough as on now.

I’ll post the results of the World Fantasy Awards at some stage on Sunday, so feel free to check back here if you’re interested but if you’re keen to get the results as fast as possible, check out SF Awards Watch, which is doing its best to live-blog the awards as they’re presented. They’re also currently taking votes on which work people think will win the award for best novel.
