2009 Ditmar Winners

Just in case you haven't heard HorrorScope has listed all the winners from this years awards.

Look very closely and you'll not see me anywhere on there - not that I expected to be, but look just a little closer and you'll see the wonderful Ms Dowker!

Well done Flick!

And congratulations to all this years winners, especially Angela and the team at Black and to Rob and everyone else I know through the AHWA and HorrorScope who got a gong. Much deserved.

Ditmars

Well knock me over with a feather:

HorrorScope has published the finalist in the Ditmar nominations for this year and among all the regular Australian genre icons, there are two names you should all recognise.

Me, and Ms Felicity Dowker.

I'm stoked just to make the nominations - hell, I was stoked just be put forward originally.

I'd like to particularly congratulate all the nominees who are, or have been, involved with HorrorScope and Black. I expect Chuck to run away with the section I've been nominated for, but I have my fingers crossed for Flick. She is an amazing new talent. I also have my toes crossed for all the other nominees I know and work with. Not everyone can win one of these, but the honour is in being nominated for the final ballot - congratulations to everyone.

For more information on the awards and how they are voted for, check out the Conjecture 2009 website. I hope they release the program of events soon so I can organise my schedule. It's in Adelaide this year so I'm keen to attend my first genre specific convention - cool.
