One is the appointment ofthe Pioneer Committee for next year. I am very pleased to announce that Veronica Hollinger has agreed to join Takayuki Tatsumi and Russell Letson on that committee, which Takayuki will chair for 1991. If you are aware of any 1990 articles which should be eligible by their subject matter but might be overlooked because they appear in unusual journals for science fiction criticism, please send copies to all three panel members. Self nominations are quite appropriate also. Rotating off the Pioneer Committee is Lynn Williams, who also served on the original committee which developed the guidelines and procedures. Many thanks for all your fine work, Lynnl I am currently working on the composition of the new Pilgrim Committee, which I should be able to announce in the next newslet­ ter, and I have already received several nominations which I will pass along to the committee. I also hope to be able to establ ish the annual meeting site for 1992 (and perhaps even 1993), so if you are interested in hosting a meeting, let me know right away. On the subject of meeting sites-I'm just back from ConFiction and the World SF General Meeting in The Hague, where I saw Milt Wolf. He promises to submit another bid for a future SFRA meeting. World SF had bids for its 1991 meeting from both China and Poland. In a Solomon's decision, the members present voted finally to hold their official General Meeting 20-25 May 1991 in Chengdu, Sichuan, but also authorized a European regional meeting to be held in con­ junction with the Eurocon in Krakow 9-12 May 1991. It's possible that some hardy souls will make both World SF meetings, just as some of us attended both the Worldcon and the NASFiC-but Isuspect there will be very few. World SF plans to meet in 1992 in Zagreb, Yugoslavia. If any SFRA members are interested in attending any of these meetings, let me know and I will keep you posted as I get more information myself. World SF welcomes teach­ ers, scholars, and librarians, as well as writers, editors, publishers, il­ lustrators, booksellers, film and TV producers, etc.-anyone who has a professional relationship to SF. 3 SFRA Newsletter, 181, October 1990 The World SF meeting was extremely interesting for news about publishing in general outside the U.S., particularly in the rapidly changing Eastern European countries. The changes extend even to the U.S.S.R. itself: Vitaly Babenko represented a flourishing new pub­ lishing venture in Moscow that can now exist outside the official Writers' Union. I also attended ConDiego (or ConDigeo as it appears at one place in the pocket program) in San Diego-both the Worldcon and the NASFiC program books were rife with misspellings and typos, but ConDiego's Committee didn't have the excuse of working with a foreign language. The most intriguing error was a title of a book of criticism (familiar to most SFRA members) by the Guest of Honor Samuel R. Delaney, which came out as The lewel-Hinged lew, con­ juring up a whole different image. Since Chip Delaney is a self-pro­ claimed dyslexic, some wits speculated that the transpositions of let­ ters were deliberately designed to make him feel at home. Although there was no official "Actrack" at either ConFiction or ConDiego, among SFRA members attending the NASFiC I saw Russ Letson, Takayuki Tatsumi, and Peter Lowentrout. In The Hague, Ialso was on a panel with a college teacher from Florida, discussing the use of science fiction to teach slow readers, a program developed by a Dutch publisher. Although we were scheduled against both Joe Haldeman's Guest of Honor Speech and a reading by Anne McCaffery, this panel drew an audience of about twenty, so I suspect there were many academics who might have attended Actrack type items if they were available. Is there interest in having an Actrack at Chicon V next year? And speaking of next year, for your convenience a membership brochure is enclosed in this issue of the newsletter. At the Executive Committee meeting we decided to do a first class mailing in Decem­ ber to those who have not renewed by then, but we urge you to write that check now while you're thinking of it and let SFRA save the postage for more important uses. If all goes smoothly with the tran­ sition of officers, we will aim to get the Directory to all the members as quickly as possible after the beginning of 1991, and of course the Directory will be most useful to everyone if it includes all the mem­ bers. While you're renewing, think about suggestions for projects SFRA should undertake. Some of our best ideas have come from these comments. Please let us hear your opinion-it mattersl Elizabeth Anne Hull 4 SFRA Newsletter, 181, October 1990 SFRA Conference Responses The Questionnaire in the August/September Newsletter, which didn't reach some members until the first week in October, generated 19 responses by 21 October, about 6% of the 325 or so members in 1990. Here's a summary of the replies: Number ofSFRA Conferences attended: None-5, 2-3, 3-1, 4-2, 5 or more-5 If none, would you attend a meeting within about 200 miles of your home? Yes-4; no-1 Is the present late June/early July date optimal? yes-1 0; n0-8 A variety of other dates were suggested, but the replies were too few to reveal any pattern or strong preferences.

  • Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Unaccompanied Sonata & Other Stories
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Unaccompanied Sonata & Other Stories by Orson Scott Card Unaccompanied Sonata and Other Stories. "Far beyond the usual fare of science fiction" is how Ben Bova, Executive Editor of OMNI, describes Orson Scott Card's work - and these eleven stories richly bear out that opinion. The title story, a Hugo and Nebula nominee, says as much as can be said about the nature of creativity, the artistic impulse, and pure human stubbornness; "The Porcelain Salamander: is a brilliant and moving fable that will be read and reread; and "Kingsmeat" touches on a truly original horror in the tale of a necessary treason and its consequences. Orson Scott Card demonstrates the dazzling range of his versatility in this collection, from the harsh depiction of merciless training for interplanetary warfare in "Ender's Game" to the tenderly elegiac mood of "Mortal Gods" and the bitter inventiveness of "The Monkeys Thought 'Twas All in Fun" - a "hard science" story that is at the same time more bizarre than the farthest-out fantasy. No story is any preparation for the next: the sardonic view of jingoism in "I Put My Blue Genes On" seems worlds apart from the uncompromising eerie look at the ultimate punishment presented by "Eumenides in the Fourth Floor Lavatory"; and only the sheer outstanding quality of imagination and writing connects the treatment of the supernatural in "Deep Breathing Exercises" and "Quietus." Most short stories, especially in what are called "category fiction," are destined to be enjoyed - if possible - and forgotten. Orson Scott Card's tales will invade and enrich the reader's memory like the work of few other writers.

  • Mormonism and Science Fiction
    Refracted Visions and Future Worlds: Mormonism and Science Fiction Michael R. Collings lthough science fiction and religion both attempt to define possible or J probable future states, they often seem incompatible. Critics of science fiction frequently argue that including religion in science fiction vitiates the power of the imagined world; and since, as James Gunn has stated, "religion answers all questions that science fiction wishes to raise . science fiction writ- ten within a religious framework . turns into parable." 1 Readers of science fiction accept the ground rules of the imagined universe, even when they are a-religious or anti-religious. When one enters the arena of science fiction, it is as if religion ceases to function.

Sep 17, Michelle rated it liked it. The dance of your hands is nothing without the dance of your voice, Songbird. Instead, all I had time to do was revise the opening and edit heavily throughout the book. Freeway Games - with a demented twist that would make Stephen King proud. But Ansset's songs are stronger than wisdom. All except Husk. But the Captain of the Guard -- like the Chamberlain -- was one of the few people at court who knew Mikal well enough to know they had nothing to fear from Ansset unless they really treated him unjustly, for Mikal never did favors, not even for the boy, who was the only human being Mikal had ever shown a personal need for. Riktors's laser was aimed at the Chamberlain. And I was afraid. He wondered why that knowledge didn't hurt him. He nodded. Print this page. Tell him in my name that he's appointed. There were other patterns, of course, that I might have followed: The success of "Ender's Game" might have led me to write more military-training stories, for instance, or I might even have attempted a sequel at that time.
