• Clarke Award 2013: And the winner is…

  
  — Authority:
  Quite a belated announcement at this point, but this year’s Arthur C. Clarke Award went to Dark Eden by Chris Beckett. Not the result I had predicted , but that’s the Clarke for you. All congratulations to Chris Beckett , who’s a writer I think deserves to be much more widely read. I didn’t get around ...

• Possiblities and happiness.

  
  — Authority:
  I watched The Pursuit of Happyness with Will Smith the other day, and this scene reminded me about pursuing our dreams. Here are ten quotes to inspire and encourage us today.

• The Manuscripts That Wouldn’t Die

  
  — Authority:
  Years and years ago—I would say maybe about the 1970s—I happened to think of a mystery novel I would like to write. So whenever I got tired of working on the current piece I was writing for Horace L. Gold to print in Galaxy and needed a break I would write a chapter or so [...]

• Clarke Award 2013: in review

  
  — Authority:
  I find the Clarke Award difficult to call this year, in terms of both what I think might win, and the order of personal preference in which I’d place the place the books. I think there are a number of books on the shortlist which are very close in quality, and they’re so different that they become hard to ...

  — Authority:
  How did Arthur C Clarke write acclaimed science fiction? Did he just dream up all his stories, or was there a meticulous research and development process? (The latter was closer to the truth.)

• The 2013 Arthur C. Clarke Shortlist: An Imaginary Judgement

  
  — Authority:
  There are lots of great pieces already about the Clarke Award.  Strange Horizons has done  a round-up or two that highlights some of this years discussion. I think Chris Gerwels piece comparing the Clarke discussion to the Hugo discussion is particularly interesting. To brutally summarise what I took out of ...

• “Took the end of the world to make us kings for a day”

  
  — Authority:
  Peter Heller, The Dog Stars (2012) Why write about the end of the world? I suppose one of the attractions, for some writers at least, must be the capacity to strip the world back to its bare bones, and focus all on the subjects one wants to explore. These thoughts crossed my mind on reading Peter Heller ’s ...
