Horrifying
Jul. 1st, 2010 11:43 pmThe winners of 2010 Bulwer Lytton contest (for truly awful opening lines) have been announced. The main award went to romance novel but they also announce finalists in each genre. I must say the SF one reads like parody - it has all the silly stuff people who don't know anything about SF think is in SF novels.
John Scalzi just officially became the SFWA president. He celebrates by bragging about the perks of the job but I think he did it just so he can sign President, SFWA. And he remembered to celebrate Canada Day by listing the Canadian contributions to SF. That is a pretty good list but it seriously lacking Dan Aykroyd and Rick Moranis.
PS. It got cooler for couple of days. It's even below 20C in the night. I'm enjoying it so much. It's like I'm lighter and less tired. And smarter. It must be a troll in me.
t’Bleen and Golxxm squelched their way romantically along the slough beach beneath the three Sommodian moons, their eye-stalks occasionally touching, and tenderly belched sweet nothings like, “I don’t think I’ve ever had such a charming evening,” and, “Say, would you like to gnaw that hunk of suppurating tissue off my dorsal appendage—it really itches.”
