And the Awards go to...!

The Hugos have been announced! I'm including a list of the winners below the cut for those of you who might not have seen yet:

( And the 2008 Hugo award winners are... )

I don't know about any of those novels or novellas sadly, but will definitely be checking them out. I am familiar with both of the film award winners and think they're both well-deserving.

Congratulations to LJ-local matociquala! I'm also pleased to note that her winning story, "Tideline", rides the crest of interstitiality: it's inspired by a necklace called "Sinners in the Hands of a Mildly Startled Buddha" by elisem.

This weekend also saw the announcement of the winners in Weird Tales' flash fiction Spam-ade! contest.

I entered this contest with the amusing spam headline: "Dark Knight disapproved by Vaticans due to Satanic links." Sadly, my little Monty Python-esque piece was not one of the finalists. No worries, though! I'll share my silly Spam-ade! story with you on Wednesday. An extra bit of fiction for the week!

Beneath the cut, you can see the headlines that did win:
