	Article: Naming the Stars: The Awards of Science Fiction (part 1 of 2), by Greg Beatty
		Campbell was editor of Astounding from 1937 through 1971, and a powerful influence on science fiction during that period, suggesting ideas to writers, nurturing new writers, and in general editing very actively.
		Gunn, a writer who is also a scholar in the field, has worked tirelessly to get science fiction accepted by mainstream academics; having the Campbell Award given here establishes it as a bridge from the genre's pulp roots to its academic acceptance.
		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.

	Campbell Award Rules
		Campbell was known for his discovery and nurturing of new writers and the publisher of Analog (Conde Nast at the time) decided to establish an award to be voted on by the members of the World Science Fiction convention for the best new writer of the previous two years.
		In the late 70s additional non-Hugo awards were added to the ballot, and in 1980-81 an amendment to the WSFS Constitution was passed limiting the Hugo ballot to the Hugo Awards and the Campbell Award.
		Eligibility is determined by the date of the writer's first professional publication of SF which must be in the two years previous to the year in which the award is given out, so for Noreascon 4 in September 2004, writers whose first professional publication was in 2002 or 2003 were eligible.

	Worldcon 2005 UK - Hugo Awards - John W Campbell Award
		The John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer is administered by the Worldcon, but it is not a Hugo Award, and the rules for awarding the Campbell are set by the publisher of Analog, Dell Magazines.
		For the purposes of the Campbell Award only, "professional publication" happens when the work is sold for more than a nominal amount and is published.
		For example, in 2003 the Award Sponsor specifically cited Interzone and Artemis (both Semiprozines by WSFS rules) as professional publications for the purposes of the Campbell Award.

	Strange Horizons Articles: The 2004 Campbell Award, by Greg Beatty
		Writers who qualify are eligible for two years, but only the top five nominees are listed on the ballot, where they receive a much closer evaluation.
		Some writers have made their first professional sale via Writers of the Future, some in venerable professional magazines such as Analog or Fantasy and Science Fiction, and some were forced to "make do" with novels as their first professional sales.
		Now, you wouldn't expect a brand new writer to have done so, but you might expect a writer with scores of stories under his belt to have it, and Jay is both.

		Her awards include the John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer and Hugo Awards for her short story "Cassandra" and her novels Downbelow Station and Cyteen.
		And if the hallmark of a good C.J. Cherryh novel is its ability to completely draw you into the characters and the world they live in, while revealing as little as possible about what is actually going on, then Hammerfall is her most ambitious work yet.
		C.J. Cherryh is as good a novelist as there is in science fiction, and it is a tribute to her high standards that her readers should have no problems believing in the promise of Hammerfall.
