2020 Awards Season Eligibility: Our Things and All the Things

/

It’s that time of year when everyone puts up their eligibility posts for stuff released in 2019. For our show and blog, it’s pretty easy to identify where we’re eligible: Hugo Award for Best Fancast (finalists in 2014 and 2019) Hugo Award for Best Fanzine We may be eligible for other categories and awards, too; it’s hard to keep track. As always, if you think our work in 2019 is worthy of an award nomination, give us a nod. We appreciate your support and love, and we hope you’ll stick around for the 2020 season! Of course, it’s not just about us. Our show and blog featured contributions from a lot of different folks. We’ve listed them here with links to their websites and notes regarding their eligibility for contributions to The Skiffy and Fanty Show or elsewhere. We encourage you to visit their individual sites, as they may release eligibility posts of their own or may have novels, short fiction, and other forms of content for which they are eligible. Here’s the list:

What Should Righteous Kicks Watch Next?

/

Hello there! It’s Brandon, one-half of Righteous Kicks, here to ask which men in spandex bodysuits you would like to see kicking evildoers to death! Iori and I have just finished watching through Kamen Rider Drive (the last Drive episode drops Friday, June 21st!), and now we want to find out which series you would like to watch along with us next! Which interests you more, based on very little information: Kamen Rider Kiva, which has ~vampires!~, or Kamen Rider Fourze, which is all about ~space!~?

We’re 2019 Hugo Finalists!!! THANK YOU!

/

We really don’t know where to start. We’ve known for about two weeks now that was coming, but there was a small part that didn’t believe it. That instead believed it was some terrible hoax. Not that we don’t believe that The Skiffy and Fanty Show isn’t deserving of this, but rather that becoming finalists in 2014 was probably the one and only time it would ever happen. Yay for imposter syndrome!  We have to say, it’s a relief to see the official official announcement and know it is true (though to be amongst such amazing finalists is still bewildering!!) But then we looked at our team and knew immediately that we should never have doubted, because our team is AMAZING and deserves every bit of this nomination:

It’s that time again! The time when so many of us tell you what we created that is eligible for an SF/F award in 2019. And as always, we’re going to tell you about all the eligible things that this podcast and/or its hosts created AND all the eligible things we covered, including movies, books, comics, and more! So hold on to your butts. This will be a monster post of delightfully awards-eligible beautificities! Here goes:

Welcome to 2019: A Year of New Things (Podcastery, a Month of Joy, and Jen’s Delicious Tears)

/

2019! We’re finally here. Like you, we’re hoping it will be a good one. 2016 ended rough. 2017 was even worse. And 2018 was sort of like getting kicked in the teeth by the high school bully every single day. Whether you lost a loved one, your government lost its damn mind, or you tried desperately to keep your hopes up in yet another year of trashfires and horror, we know this last year has been just as tough on you as it has been on each of us. That’s why we tried to make 2018 a “Year of Hope.” Hopefully, our podcast was a little beacon of light in an otherwise dark abyss. Of course, 2018 wasn’t all bad. U.S.-Americans sent a message to the alt-right that y’all ain’t gonna keep this country for long. We got a new Star Wars movie (which Shaun says was absolutely kickass). There were some amazing books by old friends, new friends, and folks we haven’t met yet. Heck, 2019 was a year of phenomenal writing of all kinds. Plus, N.K. Jemisin won another Hugo Award (we’re temporarily renaming it the Jemisin is Awesomesauce Award). In a lot of ways, 2018 was a good year.

Announcement: Dragon Physician on Radish!

/

Recently, I was approached by Radish to write for them. We talked and now I am a verified Radish author! For my inaugural serial, I will be publishing the Asian-inspired dragon-racing YA fantasy I have been talking about for a while now. It has been languishing in my hard drive, bypassed by agents, and now — hopefully — it will have a new lease of life on Radish. (Hopefully (again) that it will be a physical book at the end of the journey… Publishers? Bueller?)
