Levine<\/a> titled \"Nucleon.\"  It's a good story, and it just won the James White Award for best unpublished short story; the judges were unanimous in their praise for it.  David's getting <a href=\"http:\/\/www.spiritone.com\/~dlevine\/sf\/index.html\">published all over the place<\/a> in 2002; cool beans.<\/p>\n<p>And that reminds me to mention two other pieces of award information, one a bit belated and one more recent:<\/p>\n<p>Older news: Ken Wharton's first novel <cite>Divine Intervention<\/cite> (which we attended the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kith.org\/logos\/journal\/show-entry.php?Entry_ID=203\">book launch party<\/a> for some weeks back) is up for the <a href=\"http:\/\/ebbs.english.vt.edu\/exper\/kcramer\/PKDA.html\">Philip K. Dick Award<\/a> for best paperbook original.  Nifty.<\/p>\n<p>Newer news: Susan Lee (editor of <cite><a href=\"http:\/\/www.speculations.com\/\">Speculations<\/a>,<\/cite> fellow workshopper, and former SH co-editor&#8212;not to be confused with Susan Marie Groppi, current SH co-editor) just won first place in the latest Writers of the Future contest!  Way cool.<\/p>\n<p>I admit to being just the tiniest bit starstruck.  To have friends and people I've met and talked with being nominated for, and winning, and for that matter judging(!), awards is just plain cool.  I'm still a fanboy at heart.  Perhaps over time I'll get jaded, but I expect it to take a while.<\/p>\n<p>Btw, <cite>Locus<\/cite> has a cool <a href=\"http:\/\/www.locusmag.com\/SFAwards\/\">Index to Science Fiction Awards<\/a>, providing info and history for all sorts of awards.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The latest Interzone arrived today (December 2001 issue, so I no longer have any excuse to put off doing my&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-292","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/292","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=292"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/292\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=292"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=292"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=292"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
