ANDRE NORTON AWARDValiant: A Modern Tale of Faerie, Holly Black (Simon & Schuster)As previously announced, Harlan Ellison was presented the Damon Knight Memorial Grand Master Award, and William F. Nolan was named Author Emeritus. Connie Willis was Toastmaster.
Harlan Ellison, in the picture on the Locus site (link above), definitely looks like he's gone a bit past emeritus.
Yes! Serenity, my favorite movie of 2005 received the Nebula for best script!
Via Amy Sturgis at Liberty & Power. She has a couple link about why some of you might care that Serenity is a winner. Warning: the movie review she links to is written by Orson Scott Card whose Ender's Game series is one I still reread but whose views on social issues and politics are pretty broken.
