Authors
|
| |
This section is devoted to authors of the written word. Typically this
could be books, short stories, poetry, screen plays, and items of that ilk.
However, in recognition of the contribution made by the new breed of
game masters and game narrators, we have included sub-categories
specifically designated for authors of this type. All of these
forms share a common need for plot, sub-plot, character development, and movement within the storyline.

Convention Personnel
|
| |
Conventions play a very important role in the science fiction community.
There are folks that make these cons happen. They organize, promote,
and run conventions on the national, regional, and local level.
We have devoted a complete section to people involved in the various
aspects of running conventions partially in recognition of the work they do,
but also as a tool for helping new folks find the talent they may need
to help in the running of a con -- either as staff or even mentorships.

A certain number of folks have taken a very academic approach to the field of

some sense of the chaos known as the science fiction genre.
