Scott Edelman reports from Worldcon '09 on his blog, Failing Better

Hanging with David Kyle at Worldcon


I very much wanted to see David Kyle this weekend. He was one of the Futurians, and a co-founder of Gnome Press. Dave was at the first Worldcon, and even at what was supposed to have been the first SF con before the Worldcon, which I believe occurred in 1936 when a group of New York fans drove to meet with some Philadelphia fans in the back of a bar owned my somebody's father. (Any fan historians out there, feel free to correct me!) A Worldcon isn't a Worldcon until I catch up with Dave, and I never got a chance to do that last year at Denvention.

IROSF to Cease Publication

Seattle, WA, 12/30/2009 - After six years of publication the Internet Review of Science Fiction (irosf.com) will cease operations after the February, 2010 issue. Publisher L Blunt "Bluejack" Jackson and Editor Stacey Janssen expressed their gratitude to all the subscribers, contributors, authors, and especially the volunteers who made IROSF such a success since its first issue in January, 2004.

Continuous financial shortfalls added to the challenges of publishing IROSF, and Jackson has expressed his intent to turn to new challenges related to the economy and logistics of Internet publishing. "What we learned with IROSF and AEon Speculative Fiction was that neither traditional nor community-driven economic models met our needs, and that the complexity of managing a distributed volunteer pool burned people out, despite a steady increase in revenue and readership. Our plan is to use this knowledge, and the ready availability of new distribution channels, to create the kind of environment that would have empowered the editors to achieve the success that IROSF's superb content always deserved."

James Cameron's AVATAR is the greatest sci fi adventure film ever made

AVATAR is a film version of an exquisite gemstone faceted with thousands, if not millions of bejeweled faces, components and appearances.

Sure, there are very slight flaws in story, characters and dialogue, but as a whole work this movie is wonderful, magnificent, breathtaking, exhilarating, astonishing, superb and will expand the possibilities of film, cinema and plain ole movies for years and years to come...

James Cameron and Fox should be applauded for taking such a bold and audacious step… Continue

Three-person conversations

Three-person conversations, and any conversations involving more than two people, are notoriously difficult to write. Who are the main people in the conversation? Does everyone participate equally? How do I keep the third person in the reader's awareness when they're not saying anything, so they don't appear to come out of the blue when they do speak?

These are all good questions, and I've struggled through them just like everyone else, but I thought I'd share a few thoughts on the subject.
