Kelly Link sweeps the Nebulas
The 2005 Nebula Awards have been announced and several of my favorites were winners -- including two knockout Kelly Link stories from her collection Magic for Beginners --
Novel: Camouflage, by Joe Haldeman, (Analog, March-May 2004, also Ace book Aug. 2004)
Novella: "Magic for Beginners", by Kelly Link, (Magic for Beginners, Small Beer Press, July 2005; also in The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction, Sept. 2005)
Novelette: "The Faery Handbag", by Kelly Link: (The Faery Reel: Tales From the Twilight Realm, Ellen Datlow and Terri Windling, Eds., Viking Press, Aug. 2004)
Short Story: "I Live With You", by Carol Emshwiller, (The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction, March 2005)
Script: Serenity, by Joss Whedon, (Universal Pictures, Sept. 2005) Serenity: The Official Visual Companion (Paperback, including shooting script)
Andre Norton Award: Valiant: A Modern Tale of Faerie, by Holly Black, (Simon & Schuster, June 2005)
Yay Joss!
I also have to add that both those Kelly Link stories are amazing - especially "Magic for Beginners," which is about a group of very devoted fans of a Buffy-esque TV show. You can find links to "Magic for Beginners" online at the above link
Eleven days
since the last Firefly post?
The Buffista's coats are less brown than they ever were before.
Shame. I declare a shame.
I'm truly embarrassed. In my defense, I've been pretty dark for a month, and I keep checking the thread to see if anyone's posted yet!
Well, Gina Torres' new show was picked up by Fox.

Oh, sure. Like real life has anything to do with anything. The 'Verse will
die
if you don't keep it alive. It's like not believing in fairies.
Genocide. Rankest, ugliest genocide.
Rub it in, why dontcha.
I finally got a loaner set of DVDs. Surely that must count for something!

libby is dead to me.
sumi, I skimmed the link -- which one is Gina, and why should I care?
I think it's called Standoff and I'm not sure -- except with Gina and Ron Livingston -- pretty and talented people in the cast.
::cries, inconsolate::
::realizes name is not libby, and cheers up::
Dang, I can't even pseudo-diss the ones I want to. I am diss-less.
sumi, I'll cruise the link again. Itwas probably the "Ron Livingston" that averted my eyes.
