Special congratulations to Larry Correia and Brad Torgersen for their awards (list below).\u00a0 Larry and Brad were charter members of the Sad Puppy movement and took an enormous amount of abuse from the sad pathetic people who game the Hugo Awards every year.\u00a0 But based on the fate of Campbell Award this year I’m assuming it won’t be the Hugos for much longer but instead the Noras or the Samuels\u00a0 or some other first name of an author who didn’t have the bad manners to be born a straight white man.<\/p>\n

Larry championed the DragonCon’s fan popularity based Dragon Awards contest and it has since displaced the Hugos for all normal humans.\u00a0 I’m a big fan of Larry’s Monster Hunter series because they’re great fun and because I’m hoping that Adam Baldwin will get the chance to play Agent Franks in the big screen version of the stories.\u00a0 That would be awesome.<\/p>\n
