Revision as of 16:14, 13 October 2007

This is a list of women eligible for SF awards to be given out in 2008 based on works published from January 1, 2007, to December 31, 2007. Awards that follow this eligibility format include the Hugo, the Campbell, the World Fantasy Award, the Tiptree, and the Phillip K. Dick. (The Nebulas have a rolling period of eligibility based on the specific date a work was published.) We're listing these women as a form of award activism: to bring them greater attention, to share information about them for ourselves, and to help avoid problems like the 2006 Hugo vacuum. See Eligibility and voting by award for a quick index of information about individual awards, and links to the individual award pages for more detail.

Please include here any eligible woman, along with the information about her eligible work: title, publication date, and format. For novels, it's useful to search Amazon for the author's name: the list of works has publication date and format right there.

Note: Some awards are based on first publication and other awards are based on first publication in the US, England, etc. If a work was first published outside of the time period but would be eligible for some awards, please add it and add in parentheses any restrictions or explanations about eligibility.

A Note on Categories

Each set of awards defines its categories in its own way. There is a lot of overlap, but inevitably differences arise. For example, some awards allow SF and fantasy, others only one, and others have separate categories. Different awards define the types of short fiction with different word lengths. And different awards have different eligibility rules as regards to where a work is published, when it is published, and the nationality of the author(s). Please refer to the award descriptions below for more details.
