2003 Nebula Awards

seattlenerd writes "The 2003 Nebula Awards were awarded late Saturday night in Seattle (for the first time ever) by the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America. Winners: The Speed of Dark by Elizabeth Moon, Coraline by Neil Gaiman, "The Empire of Ice Cream" by Jeffrey Ford, "What I Didn't See" by Karen Joy Fowler (the previous two both published on the SCI FICTION site), and the script for Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers. Noteworthy were comments made by GrandMaster honoree Robert Silverberg and Harlan Ellison, who introduced Silverberg, along with guest speaker Rick Rashid of Microsoft Research. To say nothing of Cory Doctorow's acceptance speech he didn't get to make, but has made available for "alternate historians."" I was at Penguicon this weekend, along with Neil Gaiman - congrats to him on the win, and to all the others.

    Yeah. I thought that as well. I mean, just who is this Cory guy, anyway, and why is he so special that he gets away with such narcissism?

    No, the day I got to call Cory Doctorow arrogant was today. Did you miss it?

    How about ALL THE OTHER PEOPLE who got nominated and didn't win? Any of them publishing their acceptance speeches?

    Arrogant, arrogant, arrogant. Damn. Did I do it again?
