	Article: Naming the Stars: The Awards of Science Fiction (part 1 of 2), by Greg Beatty
		Each award is given to recognize a specific type of achievement in the field; each is also given in memory of a giant in science fiction.
		The award used to include a thousand pounds sterling, but in 2001 the award went up to £2001 (to acknowledge the centrality of Clarke's 2001), and it will increase a pound a year to keep pace with the year.
		As the list of awards and deaths indicates, these awards also recognize a sort of passing of the guard, a sense that the early founders are passing on and that their memories should be kept alive.

	Bentley Little - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		After reading it, Stephen King became a vocal fan of Little's work, and Little won the Bram Stoker Award for "Best First Novel" in 1990.
		He moved to New American Library for his next two novels, but was dropped from the company after he refused to write a police procedural as his next novel.

	Horror Writers Association - Stoker Awards
		To ameliorate the competitive nature of awards, the Stokers are given "for superior achievement," not for "best of the year," and the rules are deliberately designed to make ties fairly probable.

		The winners are announced and the awards presented at a gala banquet held in conjunction with HWA's annual conference, usually in June.

	The Jonathan Carroll Web Site \| The Panic Hand (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Here, for the first time in English, are Carroll's collected stories, a wide-ranging showcase for his talents, and in particular for his extraordinary ability to turn a situation disturbingly and terrifyingly on its head in an instant.
		Carroll at his best explores the psychological and social consequences of ``impossible'' situations (an ``imaginary friend'' who comes to life when his playmate reaches adulthood, a house that ``remembers'' its former occupants) with a deadpan clarity that's reminiscent less of any contemporary writers than such past masters of the genre as Saki and John Collier.
		Best of all is the story ``Friend's Best Man'' (winner of a World Fantasy Award), about an amputee's bewildered relationship with a dying girl and a dog that can predict the future.

	The Literary Gothic \| Bram Stoker
		Stoker wrote a number of other novels and short stories, several of which (The Jewel of Seven Stars and Lair of the White Worm, to mention just a couple of the novels) also have major supernaturalist elements.
		Another one of Stoker's sexually fraught tales - and another (like "The Judge's House" and Dracula) prominently featuring rats - this one features a hero on the verge of marriage (as was Stoker at the time he was writing this tale), a Parisian dump, and Olympic-caliber athleticism.
		This is, arguably, Stoker's best traditional ghost story (not that he has many such works); while heavily indebted to Joseph Sheridan LeFanu's "Mr.

		Martin was a prolific author of short fiction in the 1970s, and won several Hugo Awards and Nebula Awards before he started to turn his attention to novels late in the decade.
		He explained that he thought that the 18th and 20th centuries were the best; the former being a period of noble grace, and the latter a century of science.
		Lovecraft's prose fiction has been published numerous times, but, even after the "corrected texts" were released by Arkham House in the 1980s, many non-definitive collections of his stories have appeared, including Ballantine Books editions and, also, three popular Del Rey editions, which nonetheless have interesting introductions.

		His story, "Purity," which appeared in the 80th anniversary issue of Weird Tales, will be reprinted in the next Year's Best Fantasy and Horror, edited by Teri Windling and Ellen Datlow.
		So I studied fiction writing and wrote every day for years and years until I started to get my stories accepted by small press magazines.
		I’m not comparing myself to Lovecraft as a person or as a writer, but the rough outline of his life gave me something to aspire to.

	Science Fiction Writer Robert J. Sawyer: Edo van Belkom
		In many ways, he's the ideal of what used to be called, back when the term wasn't disparaging, a pulp writer — he writes stories quickly, often to a given editor's specification, always producing a quality, salable product on time.
		Edo was quickly made a contributing editor of the Bulletin of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America (SFWA), and Canadian membership representative for the Horror Writers Association; this past year he's served on HWA's elections search committee, and is in his second year on SFWA's Board of Directors (as Canadian Regional Director).
		He has won the Nebula Award for Best Novel of the Year (for The Terminal Experiment) and twice been a finalist for the Hugo Award.

	UNo MAS: The Panic Hand - Jonathan Carroll (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		As always, Carroll gives us vivid, well-drawn characters--they come to life the moment they are introduced--and it is largely because we possess such an intimate knowledge of their thoughts, motivations and history, that a sense of anticipation occasionally remains at story"s end.
		Quite the contrary, for over the years his stories have won him numerous awards and accolades, most recently the Bram Stoker award for Best Fiction Collection and the World Fantasy Award for "Friend"s Best Man," a story about the revolt of the animal kingdom which is one highlight of this collection.
		The reader eagerly becomes a participant, a protagonist almost, as he or she is swept along with each new storyline in which Carroll masterfully suspends our disbelief.

	The SF Site Featured Review: The Complete Accursed Wives
		Every collection has weak pieces (the number of exceptions proves the rule), but the unity of counterpointing themes allows even the weaker pieces to contribute to the whole where, in any other collection, the weakness becomes noticeable.
		Reading the collection en masse, one senses Boston carefully cataloguing the extensive list of relationship crimes we are prone to commit against one another, making this a must-read or those of us endlessly intrigued by the male-female dynamic.
		Of all the contemporary poetry collections, whether within the literary or speculative genres, this one is one of the indispensables and, for me, Boston's strongest effort yet.

		Sometimes they cross over and fall into the province of “outsider artists.” That’s where the future development of horror fiction lies—in the next person who is almost too emotionally and psychologically damaged to live in the world but not too damaged to produce fiction.”

		Ligotti descibes his worldview as profoundly nihilistic, and has stated he has suffered from anxiety for much of his life: these have both been prominent themes in his work.
		Ligotti generally avoids the explicit violence common in some recent horror fiction, preferring to establish an intensely disquieting, nihilistic atmosphere through the use of subtlety and repetition.
		Ligotti has stated he prefers short stories to longer forms, both as a reader and writer, though he has recently written a novella.
