Title: WSFA Small Press Award
Post by Webbie on Jan 29th, 2013, 1:47pm

WSFA Small Press Award Committee is accepting nominations for its 2013 Award for stories published in 2012.  The submission period will close on April 5.

The Washington Science Fiction Association [www.wsfa.org] has established a literary award to honor the work done by small presses in promoting and preserving science fiction. The award, now in its seventh year, is given annually for short fiction works (17,500 words or fewer) of imaginative literature (e.g., science fiction, fantasy, horror, speculative fiction or like literature) published by a small press. Stories may be nominated by SF authors and small press publishers. Details of the nomination process and contact information can be found at [www.wsfasmallpressaward.org].  If you have any question email: admin (at) wsfasmallpressaward (dot) org.


Deadline is April 5 2013

Anotherealm does qualify as a small press publisher for the purposes of this contest. Any takers?

Webbie, thanks for the heads-up on the small press program at the Washington SF Club. They are definitely a big-time group, so hope AR sends some submissions. I'm definitely going to send some from WhP -- in fact, I can guess right now which three stories they will be. I would love to see our writers get some more recognition. And if none of them get a prize, I will know the contest is fixed!

P.S. BTW, where did my post on Gene-Michael Higney's new book go? I told Ann Garett I would post it here, for anyone who knew/remembers our dear GM.
