SFC Update Vol. 1 No. 10
SoUTheRN FANDOM CONFEDeRATiON UPDATE VoLUMe 1, ISsUE 10 OCToBEr 2009 2 Musings of a Faned It’s been a busy month, what with Dragon*Con and FenCon, plus planning for the NASFiC and my usual fannish stuff. I’ve decided to try something new in the SFCU – reviews. I was reading Chris Garcia’s editorial in Science Fiction/San Francisco , and realized that he was right – there’s a paucity of reviews in fanzines these days. So I decided to do the only rational thing I could – start working on the problem, and encourage my friends to help. Oh, and I fired off a letter of comment to SF/SF challenging Chris to become a part of the solution – for every review he sends me, I’ll send him a LoC (he’s got enough zines that I’m in no real danger of doubling up – SF/SF , The Drink Tank , Claims Department , Journey Planet , and Exhibition Hall , all of which I read on www.efanzines.com ). Also, at FenCon, I ran into Brad Foster, and while talking about fanzine art, realized that he was right – I hadn’t used all of the work he’d sent me. So this issue’s cover boasts one of his drawings, which fit remarkably well with the font I chose for the cover. It’s a small cover illo, but then, this zine has a really big title, and I like to make it flashy. There are other fanartists from Texas I’d like to start featuring, too, and I need to email them. -

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. -
