Live from Worldcon

Having a great time at Worldcon. Attended the WSFS Business Meeting and know what to expect for tomorrow’s vote on the future of the Best Semiprozine Hugo. Attended a panel about magazines and whether or not they should have a Hugo, which led to several interesting discussions during and after the panel. Off to the Chesley Awards in a few minutes to represent Mats Minnhagen should his Clarkesworld Magazine cover win in the Best Magazine Cover category… and then immediately to my next panel on Mainstreaming the Geek Dream. Parties to follow.

The Semiprozine vote will take place tomorrow morning at:

WSFS Business Meeting
Saturday 10:00AM, P-518BC

If you are at Worldcon and have an opinion on this matter, please be there.

      You’re welcome, but all I really did was hold the flashlight. The category survived because semiprozines are producing meaningful and worthwhile works. Some people just needed that pointed out to them.
