Fantasy Minute for December 2, 2005: Episode 99

Mark Kelly has expounded on his thread regarding the Hugo “Fantasy” Awards. Lots of great links over there, but this is of interest:

In 2005, there were two fantasy and three SF nominees; fantasy won. [For purposes of this survey I'm counting China Miéville's books as fantasy.]

In 2004, there was one fantasy and four SF nominees; fantasy won.

In 2003, there was one fantasy (China) and four SF nominees; SF won.

In 2002, there were three fantasy and three SF nominees; fantasy won.

In 2001, there were two fantasy and three SF nominees; fantasy won.

Lone Star Stories #12 is now online with new fiction and poetry.

With the demise of SciFiction at the SciFi channel, this interesting story outlines SciFi Channel’s 10 million dollar ad campaign for “The Triangle”. I wonder what Ellen Datlow’s salary was?
