		One of the things that has been overlooked is that these are the "writers" of the future award and not science fiction, fantasy or horror writers.
		The writers in this volume as well as many of the others preceding it share those genres, but they are stories that can be told in any genre because they are good enough to be published anywhere.
		All of them are well done and show a level of writing and characterization and each writer should be very proud of their accomplishment.

		And while the big-name writers nodded at the amplified promises of yet another of the grand prize winners to work hard and get published and be famous, perhaps one or two eyed me speculatively and wondered if one day I'd be competing with them for rack space.
		Besides the writers who try for it and a small handful of people who think awards are the measure of having done something, the two trophies sitting beside the TV don't really have a lot of luster in the true arena: the one where new sentences must be made and new stories cobbled together.

	Ron Collins: On Writers of the Future
		WotF is a sprint that throws people together over a simmering flame and lets them sort out what they're going to accomplish on their own.
		Where Clarion seems to be attended by people who can write pretty well and want to write better, WotF (at least the session I was at) is attended by people on the fringe of making it, people who have generally been writing for a while.
		But this came with full knowledge that I was going to be judged once again by professional writers, that a first draft of mine was going to be dissected by people who make a good living in the industry.

		In search of answers, I interviewed dozens of men about what it means to be a man today and asked 20 of them to write personal, revealing essays about their attempts to challenge the narrowly defined masculinity they were introduced to as children.
		The result is What Makes a Man: 22 Writers Imagine the Future, a diverse collection that explores the interstices of contemporary masculinity and war, money, sex, marriage, and inner peace, among others.
		Almost half of the writers are African American (two others are gay men), and a recurring theme involves the shedding of machismo associated with that culture.
