The second oldest--and most prestigious--awards in the field, they quickly were nicknamed the Hugos (officially since 1958), in honor of Hugo Gernsback (1884 -1967), founder of Amazing Stories, the first professional magazine devoted entirely to science fiction. No awards were given in 1954 at the World Science Fiction Con in San Francisco, but they were restored in 1955 at the Clevention (in Cleveland) and included six categories: novel, novelette, short story, magazine, artist, and fan magazine.

However, we had our usual small total of about 10 trick or treaters, so it was a relaxing night. The next day, after going to the YMCA in the morning, we had a quick lunch at a diner (which used to be as prevalent in New Jersey as mushrooms in a field, but recently have diminished to one every few towns) followed by a ride to Newark Airport to pick up Mark and Kate who flew back from a week at Disney World. They had a good week there, climaxed by a huge Halloween party at the Magic Kingdom so that they came home with two huge bags filled with candy. November is the month of the Indian Culture Club’s annual Family Diwali Dinner, and it was very successful. The officers did a good job planning it, the families brought lots of food, and everybody enjoyed themselves.

There was a Space Cadet of Space Cadet in the house while I was growing up, but I also did a Space Cadet of dumb things. Eventually the nickname started to stick, and I began to feel like I really was a space cadet. Sometimes I still do. I would baptise that nickname with a whole new meaning. I love what I do. I love creating colours, creating yarns, and giving my customers something beautiful to feed their creative juices. And so I can say, at last, that I am truly proud to be the SpaceCadet.

  • {PDF EPUB} the Day After Tomorrow by Robert A. Heinlein Sixth Column (The Day After Tomorrow) by Robert A
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} The Day After Tomorrow by Robert A. Heinlein Sixth Column (The Day After Tomorrow) by Robert A. Heinlein. Published 1949. Originally published as The Day After Tomorrow by Anson McDonald in Astounding Magazine , (later Analog ),1941. 241 pages (from the Virginia Heinlein edition, based on the 1949 Gnome Press hardback.) Review by Mark Yon. Here’s one of my occasional re-reads of Robert Anson Heinlein’s novels. This one is what they call ‘a fixup’, originally being in three parts in the January, February and March editions of Astounding Magazine , under the editorial tuition of John W. Campbell. It became a slightly revised novel in 1949, with the author’s real name rather than his pseudonym, and a little tidying up. Putting it in the context of Heinlein’s other writing, it was published as a novel after his juvenile book Red Planet and before Farmer in the Sky . As written by Anson McDonald, however, it was not written with the intention of being for the juvenile market, but as something more adult. I found it less satisfying than Red Planet and Farmer in the Sky , its adult voice both uncertain and unreal. It reflects the fact that it was written before Heinlein had had any novels published, and seems a little wobbly both in its concept and its delivery: something which would become much less noticeable as Heinlein becomes more confident in later writing. This lack of success may also be partly due to the fact that Sixth Column was based upon an idea given to Heinlein from Campbell, the only major work of Heinlein’s career to be plotted by someone else.

  • The Traveller Chronicle Short Fiction
    The Science Fiction In Traveller A Reader’s Guide to Traveller Role-Playing Fiction By Shannon Appelcline Far Future Enterprises 2016 Preface Award-winning reviewer Shannon Appelcline (Designers & Dragon) investigates the science-fiction literature that shaped the structure and content of the Traveller science-fiction role-playing game. He reviews and discusses the broad expanse of SF that influenced Marc Miller as he designed the massive background universe of Traveller, and then gives equal consideration to the novels and short stories that were inspired by Traveller. Introduction I think that one of the best ways to prepare yourself for a roleplaying game is to immerse yourself in its fiction. It’s a way to gain a visceral, unconscious understanding of a game world — allowing you to instinctively respond to your player’s action in the context of a real universe. So, when I decided to run a Mongoose Traveller game in 2009, I started reading. Marc Miller has listed a number of novels that influenced Traveller over the years, and I began with some of those — including classics from the ‘50s and ‘60s by authors that I was largely unfamiliar with, like H. Beam Piper, E.C. Tubb, and Keith Laumer. They helped me to gain a better appreciation not just for Traveller’s universe, but also for science fiction’s history. I could have read scores more “inspirational” novels, but instead I moved on to the novels actually written about the Traveller universe. Though Traveller doesn’t have the depth of D&D’s fiction line, I was happy to discover that there were about a dozen novels that were “Traveller” to various degrees.

  • The New Heinlein Opus List
    Nhol.fm Page 253 Wednesday, March 22, 2000 7:21 PM Excerpted from the book Robert A. Heinlein: A Reader’s Companion. This excerpt is from the final press version of the book, and the numbering scheme herein can be considered final. Any updates or changes to this list will use the addendum numbering described on the second page. ©1996–2000 James Gifford. All Rights Reserved. May be duplicated and quoted from according to the terms described in “Reproduction & Use of the Hew Heinlein Opus List” within. The author may be contacted at: [email protected] www.nitrosyncretic.com Nitrosyncretic Press PO Box 4313, Citrus Heights, CA 95611 916-723-4765 voice & fax The New Heinlein Opus List This section presents a complete listing of every known work by Robert A. Heinlein, in the order of creation. Each work is prefaced by a unique identify- ing number, the New Heinlein Opus Number. These numbers, in the format ‘G.nnn,’ have been used throughout this book to identify the work in ques- tion. These numbers have not been used previously for Heinlein’s works. Those readers who are familiar with Heinlein’s opus list may wonder why I did not use Heinlein’s own numbers for these works. The answer is simple: Heinlein’s list was developed and maintained as the core of a filing system for the business management of his works. It was not created until about 1948, with the number of existing works approaching three digits. It is neither complete nor completely accurate in its numbering: there are minor works that do not appear on it, as well as some works that appear out of sequence.
