	The Collected Short Fiction of C.J. Cherryh - C. J. Cherryh - Penguin Group (USA) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Featuring the short stories, novellas, and novelettes of multiple award-winning author C.J. Cherryh, this volume is a must-have for fans and newcomers alike.
		Stories are as long as stories need to be, and no longer, and I’d never read one that wasn’t, from Poe to Pyle.
		I became aware, when I thought closely about it, that that Poe fellow I liked was a short story writer—in fact, I’d learned he was the father of the short story—but I’d just never analyzed what he did; and to me it still seems more like tales than architectural structure.

	Hugo Award - SciFi/Fantasy Wiki
		The award categories have changed over time, as the field of science fiction has grown and changed.
		While the WSFS rules state that the award is for works of science fiction and fantasy, in practice it has almost always gone to science fiction works.

	"The Tale of the Golden Eagle" by David D. Levine
		Honors: Nominated for the Hugo Award for Best Short Story.
		The idea of spaceships with animal brains reminded me of (or was perhaps stolen from) the wonderful Instrumentality stories of Cordwainer Smith, so I wrote the story in a "Smithian" style, with a great depth of time, loving description, and a recognition within the story that it is a story.
		"Best of all is promising new writer David D. Levine's 'The Tale of the Golden Eagle,' about a brain encased in a spaceship that becomes a derelict, and the man who discovers and frees this brain far in the future.

	Mike Resnick: Kirinyaga
		Since 1962, when Brian W. Aldiss's "Hothouse" Cycle of short stories was granted the Hugo Award for Best Short Story, the awards have become more or less set with a much more strictly defined set of rules.
		Now, however, there is a cycle of short stories which deserves to win an award as a whole as much as the Aldiss series does.
		The final story, "The Land of Nod" is the final chapter of Koriba's attempt to lead his people into a Kikuyu utopia.

		But while the Ringworld is an artificial, made construct, Niven's Smoke Ring could exist in nature: a doughnut-shaped region of breathable atmosphere in null-gravity, centered on and orbiting a dense object, which is itself in orbit around a star (and in an infinite universe, it should exist somewhere).

	The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas Summary & Essays - Ursula K. Le Guin
