In this episode of Rocket Talk, Justin Landon is joined by Anne Perry and Jared Shurin to talk about the science fiction and fantasy literary award scene. The discussion ranges from why awards exist in the first place, to how effective they are at driving readership, to how they impact the discussions that make up so much of what we call fandom.
Anne is an editor with UK publisher Hodder & Stoughton and Jared is the editor of Jurassic London, a not-for-profit small press. Together they are the founders of the Kitschies and popular blog destination, Pornokitsch.com.
