	Science fiction - SCIFIPEDIA
		Broadly, science fiction is a genre of imaginative fiction that explores the impact of technology on society and individuals, or that relies on extrapolation from known science and technology to construct its plot or setting.
		Science fiction is that class of prose narrative treating of a situation that could not arise in the world we know, but which is hypothesized on the basis of some innovation in science or technology, or pseudo-technology, whether human or extra-terrestial in origin.
		Science fiction is story-telling, usually imaginative as distinct from realistic fiction, which poses the effects of current or extrapolated scientific discoveries, or a single discovery, on the behavior of individuals of society.

	Locus Online: Rich Horton on Editors and Awards
		Editors are also influential because they significantly affect what writers choose to write about: what kind of stories, and what subject matter.
		The dominant editors all worked at magazines that were among the highest-paying in the field during their tenure, though not necessarily the very highest paying.
		One of the great joys is to be reminded of the editors of publications that have not been represented in the awards, usually due to obscurity or to being overseas.

	[No title] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		It may be useful for editors who are putting together an anthology to say, "Stories that will fit on three pages are in; stories that won't are out." But word count doesn't capture very well the essence of what it is to read a flash fiction.
		The editors chose their stories with the help of students who identified their favorites among published short-shorts.
		Science fiction is, ideally, the literature of ideas.

	SF's Wild Ride: Publishing in the '90s
		The scariest thing about science fiction in the 1990s is how accurately it was forecast by the cyberpunks of the '80s.
		We may not have all the neat hardware Gibson and his fellow writers predicted, but their chilling vision of a mega-corporate future is rapidly coming true, and SF book publishing is right in the middle of it.
		Science fiction is about change, and in the last decade there's been more change for SF writers to explore than ever before.

	Technology Review: Top Scientists Pick The Best Science Fiction
		As the editors explained, "We asked leading scientists from around the world what science fiction meant to them: how they related to it and what influence it had on them.
		Among the science fiction films, Bladerunner was the top pick, followed by 2001:A Space Odyssey, Star Wars, Alien, Solaris, Terminator, The Day the Earth Stood Still, War of the Worlds, The Matrix, and Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
		Among science fiction writers, not unexpectedly, Isaac Asimov rules, followed by John Wyndham, Fred Hoyle, Philip K. Dick, H.G. Wells, Ursula K. Le Guin, Arthur C. Clarke, Ray Bradbury, Frank Herbert, and Stanislav Lem.

	Editors (fiction-publishing industry)
		Some don't like science fiction (I find it useful to have non-SF readers critique my SF stories because those readers are less likely to be generous with SF ideas).
		I would strongly suggest that, unless the private editor is being recommended by a legitimate, for-profit publisher (not a vanity-press publisher) or agent, and he comes with references you can verify, you avoid commercial, private editors.
		It has been from studying my editor's comments that I have been able to identify patterns, weaknesses, and errors in my writing, and then work on my own to solve thoise problems, study to improve style, and develop writing tools to achieve particular effects more strongly.

	James Patrick Kelly, John Kessel \| Interviews \| SCI FI Weekly
		His stories frequently appear in Asimov's Science Fiction, where he also has a nonfiction column about the Internet called "On the Net." His novella, Burn, is a current Hugo Award finalist and is available for free online as both an electronic text and a podcast.
		SF author, editor and scholar John Kessel was born on in 1950 in Buffalo, N.Y. He currently resides in Raleigh, N.C., where he teaches American literature, science fiction, fantasy and fiction writing at North Carolina State University.
		By putting some of their stories next to ones from writers normally associated with genre fiction, like Howard Waldrop and Ted Chiang, I hope that we can see more clearly what slipstream fiction might be.

	Sci-Fi Lists - Top Science Fiction
		The Top 200 Sci-Fi Books list is the flagship of the site, but lists have also been compiled for movies and television with the aim of being the most statistically reliable of their type found anywhere on the net.
		To qualify a book has to be generally regarded as science fiction by credible sources and/or recognised as having historical significance to the development of the genre.
		The qualification rules are similar to those used for the books list and for statistical purposes films in a series are treated in tallies as stand-alones.

	Science Fiction Weekly Interview
		ordon Van Gelder entered the science fiction field early in life--while he was still in high school, he sold a story to an anthology edited by Terry Carr.
		Science Fiction Weekly spoke with Van Gelder recently about this momentous shift in the world of SF magazine publishing.
		There's still enough of the book editor in me to believe that an author can occasionally include a tangent in a story that may not advance the plot of the story but is just interesting to read.

	The SF Site: 2003 -- Best Read of the Year in Science Fiction and Fantasy
		I enjoy compiling the SF Site Editors' Choice list (what you're reading now) and Readers' Choice list (which will appear next issue) because there are always a few surprises for me, which inevitably lead me to some great books I wouldn't otherwise have discovered.
		It's a fictional burlesque of a type of medical journal from an earlier era, which of course would have purported to be non-fiction, in spite of (perhaps unintentional) imaginative exaggerations.
		As usual, there are a couple of writers who might have made it higher on the list if the votes hadn't been split between their various efforts (like Jasper Fforde, for example).

	Eco - Works: Fiction
		The book is like a marvelous play, where philosophical discussion, theological debate, and scientific discourse interact brilliantly on the stage of historical fiction; a drama where a complex plot masked as a detective story pulls the reader into surprisingly dynamic relationships with a cast of metaphysical characters.
		Its fanbase is very large, and includes mystery buffs, classical lit professors, postmodern fiction enthusiasts, science fiction and fantasy fans, mathematicians and linguists – rarely does one encounter a contemporary work with a readership so diverse.
		At heart, it is a tale of the seventeenth century, a dizzying time when science and reason were divorcing themselves from magic and superstition, when politics and religion were swirling with new currents, and the fires of Revolution and Enlightenment could be barely glimpsed in the distant mirrors of a Paris salon.

		Of course, you could say that science fiction and fantasy are both setting genres, while monster movies are character genres, allowing the movies to comfortably fit into both catagories.
