Final WFC report!

Congratulations to this year's winners, Gene Wolfe, Jeff Ford, M. Rickert, and the firm of Datlow & Windling.  Full results here.  I note in passing that two of the winners, Ford and Datlow, had their pictures taken with Flat Stephen. 

Speaking of which . . .  Flat Stephen with three-name wonders David Anthony Durham and James Patrick Kelly.  Work your award-winning magic, Flat!

 

Yet another of Flat Stephen's admirers!



Nick Mamatas "horns" Flat Stephen while Jeff Ford handles pouring duties.



Flat Stephen recommends Acacia Pinot Noir!


Here's Flat with a guy whose name I don't know but whose sideburns evoked Asimov and Elvis equally:  Elvismov!


And now some non-Flat pictures.  Paul Park read a terrific story called "A Family History," elements of which were auctioned off on eBay prior to the story's composition.



Not too clear, admittedly, but that's Gene Wolfe reading "Mute," a post-apocalyptic story.



Ysabeau Wilce reading from her WFC-nominated novella, "Quartermaster Returns."  She handed out spiffy fans to her spiffy fans!


John Crowley reading from his novel-in-progress, Four Freedoms. 



A great con, but somewhat exhausting.  I'm glad to be back in NYC for a few days to decompress a bit before heading back to Delaware!

Umm, Ysabeau Wilce's nominated story was "The Lineaments of Gratified Desire".

"Quartermaster Returns" is a story in the new ECLIPSE anthology, out just recently.

You are correct -- my apologies to Ms. Wilce! And to clarify, she read "Quartermaster Returns" -- no doubt a future nominee.

Fresh As A Daisy

Having had the pleasure of riding back to Manhattan with Flat Stephen (who chose to stay comfortably in the trunk of the car), I can testify that he was as fresh and rested after a hard weekend of Coning. Which is much more than can be said for most of the three dimensional con goers.

Re: Fresh As A Daisy

At least for this 3-dimensional one! Thanks for the company on the ride home, Rick!

Oops. And although it is in fact good to see, I meant it was good to see YOU!
