Last weekend Gary traveled to Madison, Wisconsin – home of Wiscon – where in amongst fine dinners and even finer conversation he managed to find time to ask Eileen Gunn, Ellen Klages and Geoff Ryman to join us on the podcast to discuss the 20th anniversary of the Tiptree Awards, Wiscon, the value of short fiction, and other things. Many, many thanks to Eileen, Ellen and Geoff for joining us. We hope you enjoy it, as always, and will see you next week!
Ah, Tiptree Award, I do love you, but only SF award that gives out cash as well as a trophy? Hello? Arthur C. Clarke Award?
Hey Cheryl – These things do sometimes slip by in the rush of recording, but you’re totally correct. There are several awards that offer cash prizes. I don’t know if the Tiptree is the oldest, but it’s certainly not the only one. – J
. . . and I of all people should have caught that, since the Crawford Award also carries a cash prize. Thanks for your attentiveness, Cheryl, as usual.
