  • THE 2016 DELL MAGAZINES AWARD This Year’S Trip to the International Conference on the Fantastic in the Arts Was Spent in a Whirl of Activity
    EDITORIAL Sheila Williams THE 2016 DELL MAGAZINES AWARD This year’s trip to the International Conference on the Fantastic in the Arts was spent in a whirl of activity. In addition to academic papers, author readings, banquets, and the awards ceremony, it was a celebration of major life events. Thursday night saw a surprise birthday party for well-known SF and fantasy critic Gary K. Wolfe and a compelling memorial for storied editor David G. Hartwell. Sunday morning brought us the beautiful wedding of Rebecca McNulty and Bernie Goodman. Rebecca met Bernie when she was a finalist for our annual Dell Magazines Award for Undergraduate Ex- cellence in Science Fiction and Fantasy Writing several years ago. Other past finalists were also in attendance at the conference. In addition to Re- becca, it was a joy to watch E. Lily Yu, Lara Donnelly, Rich Larson, and Seth Dickin- son welcome a brand new crop of young writers. The winner of this year’s award was Rani Banjarian, a senior at Vanderbilt University. Rani studied at an international school in Beirut, Lebanon, before coming to the U.S. to attend college. Fluent in Arabic and English, he’s also toying with adding French to his toolbox. Rani is graduating with a duel major in physics and writing. His award winning short story, “Lullabies in Arabic” incorporates his fascination with memoir writing along with a newfound interest in science fiction. My co-judge Rick Wilber and I were once again pleased that the International Association for the Fantastic in the Arts and Dell Magazines cosponsored Rani’s expense-paid trip to the conference in Orlando, Florida, and the five hundred dollar prize.

  • Quag Keep Press Release
    PRESS RELEASE Announcing Development of QUAG KEEP The Andre Norton Estate Joins with George Strayton to Develop Fantasy Adventure Film Based on Novel “Quag Keep” Indianapolis, IN (Friday, August 17, 2012)—Screenwriter and producer George Strayton and the Andre Norton Estate have jointly announced today that they have entered into an agreement to develop Quag Keep by award-winning author Andre Norton into an action-packed, 3D, fantasy- adventure feature film. “We couldn't ask for a better filmmaker to bring Andre’s work to the big screen,” said Sue Stewart, executor of the Andre Norton Estate. “We’re very excited about moving the project forward.” Strayton added, “It’s an honor to help re-introduce Andre Norton to a whole new legion of fans in the form of a summer tentpole film.” They were roleplaying gamers in our world. Each came from a different place and a different background. Now they’ve been magically transported into the game of wizards and dragons. Can they band together to unlock the secret of their summoning, save their own world, and finally find a way back home without completely freaking out, getting themselves killed, or both…? Published in 1978 and still in print, Quag Keep was the first novel based on the world of Dungeons & Dragons—the progenitor of all modern roleplaying games from World of Warcraft to Halo to Call of Duty—and was written by the legendary, multi-award-winning grand-mistress of science fiction and fantasy, Andre Norton. About Andre Norton Considered one of the greatest American sci-fi/fantasy writers of all time, Andre Norton (1912 – 2005) authored dozens of novels under various noms de plume, including Andre Norton, Andrew North, and Allen Weston.
