### THE DARK OF THE JUNE ###
J.G. BALLARD was in _The New Yorker_ in May with another apparently new
story, 'The Autobiography of J.G.B.' -- which like the _Guardian_'s 'The
Dying Fall' had been in _Interzone_ in 1996, as 'The Secret Autobiography
of J. G. B******', and before that in _Ambit_ in 1984. [ED] (Yes, Mr
Pringle, we _know_ it first appeared in French in 1981.)
HARLAN ELLISON turned down his home town's Cleveland Arts Prize for life
achievement, after discovering that not only was he expected to pay all
travel and accommodation expenses but he would be allowed only a three-
minute acceptance speech and, by the way, did he know any Clevelanders
who could help with event sponsorship by buying an ad in the souvenir
book? (Cleveland.com 'The Plain Dealer', 8 May) [TJ]
DIANA WYNNE JONES has been suffering tiresome and exhausting medical
tests, and may yet need to go into hospital for an operation. She's very
sorry that she had to cancel her guest-of-honour appearances at
Plokta.con (May) and the conference on her works (July; see below).
URSULA K. LE GUIN reacted splendidly to the editorial explanation that
J.G. Ballard didn't write sf ('But that's like calling _Brave New World_
science fiction, or _1984_.' -- see _A262_.) 'Every time I read this
sentence it suggests more parallels: / "But that's like calling _Don
Quixote_ a novel." / "But that's like calling _The Lord of the Rings_ a
fantasy." / "But that's like calling _Utopia_ a utopia ..."
(Ursulakleguin.com, 6 May)
ROG PEYTON, hero sf book dealer -- late of Andromeda Book Co and now
trading as Replay Books -- warns that the End Times are closing in: 'I'm
desperately trying to fully retire at the end of the year (honest!) ...
Novacon 39 [November 2009] will be the last convention I sell books at.'

### INFINITELY IMPROBABLE ###
AS OTHERS SEE _STAR TREK_. 'Who likes this stuff? Forty-year-old nerds
who still live with their parents, for a start. [...] The most devoted
of them are compelled to decorate their homes in Star Trek motifs, dress
up in exact replicas of Starfleet uniforms, attempt to reconcile
inconsistencies between episodes, and assimilate hoards _[sic]_ of trivia
questions ...' (_The Week_, 16 May) [JB]
_Dept of Added Metaphor._ '_Star Trek_ is a boisterous adventure
incorporating that most reliable of plot devices, a black hole, which
allows the filmmakers to ride roughshod over the past.' (_Richmond and
Twickenham Times_, 15 May) [YH]
AWARDS. _Compton Crook_ (first novel): Paul Melko, _Singularity Ring_.
_Guardian Children's Fiction Prize:_ Julia Eccleshare, chair of the
longlist judges, says, 'We haven't really got any fantasy. There is still
a lot of fantasy around, but exceptional fantasy has always been rather
hard to find'. The longlist includes alternate history (Terry Pratchett,
_Nation_) and post-apocalyptic sf (Bernard Beckett, _Genesis_).
(_Guardian_, 23 May)
MAGAZINE SCENE. _Paradox: The Magazine of Historical & Speculative
Fiction_, ed. Christopher M. Cevasco, ceased with its 13th (May) issue.
AS OTHERS COMPARE US. 'When writing the _goals and objectives_ section
of a foundation grant proposal, grant seekers are like sci-fi writers.
They envision the future. Of course, there is one critical difference:
whereas sci-fi writers generally present fantasy, grant seekers discuss
what is realistic and feasible.' (Cheryl A. Clarke, _Storytelling for
Grantseekers_, 2001) [PL]
R.I.P. _Wayne Allwine_ (1947-2009) US actor who voiced Mickey Mouse for
Disney since 1977, died on 18 May. As sound effects editor he worked on
_Star Trek V_, _The Black Cauldron_ and other genre films. [SFS]. _John
Atkins_ (1916-2009), UK author of some fantasy and sf including the
future-historical _Tomorrow Revealed_ (1955), died on 31 March aged 92.
[JC]
_John Blankenchip_ (1919-2009), US theatre designer and director who
as resident designer for Ray Bradbury's Pandemonium Theatre Company had
been working on an Autumn 2009 production of _The Martian Chronicles_,
died on 1 April; he was 89. [AIP]
_Mickey Carroll_ (1919-2009), four-foot-three US actor who built a
career on his Munchkin roles in _The Wizard of Oz_ (1939), died on 7 May
aged 89. [BB]
_Dom DeLuise_ (1933-2009), popular US comedy actor with parts in
several Mel Brooks films -- including the voice of Pizza the Hutt in
_Spaceballs_ (1987) -- and assorted genre tv series, died on 4 May aged
75. [BB]
_Abigail Frost_ (1951-2009), UK fan and arts critic active in
fanzines (and later convention newsletters) from 1979 to the mid-1990s,
died from an undiagnosed heart problem at the end of April; she was 57.
Roz Kaveney writes: 'You should all have known her at her best, jabbing
away with a perpetual cigarette, cracking wise as if she was at the
Algonquin, slightly tipsy and slightly out of control and combining her
part-Italian heritage with a very English dryness.'
_Alan Keeley_, UK horror movie fan who as 'Mister Damage' coedited
the 1992-3 spoof fanzine _Horrorshow_ with Steve Green ('Eddie
Trenchcoat'), died on 22 May. He was 52. [SG]
_James Kirkup_ (1918-2008), UK-born writer and poet who was long
embarrassed by the notoriety and (successful) blasphemy prosecution of
his 1976 _Gay News_ poem about Christ, died on 10 May; he was 91. Kirkup
published two fantasy plays and an eccentric sf satire, _Queens Have Died
Young and Fair_ (1993). [JC]
_Kaoru Kurimoto_ (Sumiyo Imaoka, 1953-2009), Japanese author of the
126-volume Guin Saga fantasy (and latterly anime) sequence plus many
other novels, died on 26 May aged 56. [PDF]
_Robert Louit_ (1944-2009), French sf editor and critic who
translated _Crash_ and other J.G. Ballard novels (plus work by Graham
Greene, Robert Silverberg and others), died on 13 May aged 64. [RS/DP]
Authors published by his Dimension SF imprint included Philip K. Dick and
Christopher Priest -- who writes: 'Robert made my career in France,
buying _Inverted World_ at a time when I'd lost confidence in it (lousy
reviews in the UK and US), treating it like a classic in the making,
going for it, and some 35 years later it's still in print. And he
remained a valued friend for all that time.'
_Jane Randolph_ (1915-2009), US actress best remembered for _Cat
People_ (1942) and its sequel _The Curse of the Cat People_ (1944), died
on 4 May aged 93. [PDF]
_A. Langley Searles_ (1920-2009), editor of the respected scholarly
fanzine _Fantasy Commentator_ (1943-1953; second series 1978-2004) and
long-time member of FAPA, died on 7 May. He was 88. [BI via SG]
_Joan A. Stanton_ (1915-2009), who as Joan Alexander voiced Lois
Lane in the 1940s radio _Adventures of Superman_, died on 18 May aged 94.
[PDF]
SCIENCE CORNER. A CERN physicist explains _Angels & Demons_ to the _Daily
Mirror_: 'Would anti-matter really cause an explosive device? _Dr
Shears:_ Yes it could in theory. "If you made a Tom Hanks and an anti Tom
Hanks you would not be able to tell them apart. But if you put them
together we would all be annihilated."' (Mirror.co.uk, 15 May) [TL]
Having to keep one of them in vacuum to avoid the annihilation reaction
with air might offer a clue as to which was which.

Bridge_; Terry Pratchett, _Nation_; Chris Roberson, _The Dragon's Nine

#15); T.L. Morganfield, 'Night Bird Soaring' (_Greatest Uncommon
Denominator_ #3); Mary Rosenblum, 'Sacrifice' (_SiC_); Kristine Kathryn
Rusch. 'G-Men' (_SiC_).
WE ARE THE NORM? 'It's unthinkable for an American male of my age to say
this, but it's true: I do not, as a rule, care for science fiction. / I
learned years ago not to air this singular lapse at parties. People don't
take it well. They insist, horrified, that I cannot be serious, as though
I'd confessed a fondness for kicking stray dogs or pushing old ladies
into traffic.' (Franklin, _The Panopticon_ blog, 12 May) [RF]
PUBLISHERS & SINNERS. The latest by Japanese horror author Koji Suzuki
deals with deep unpleasantness in a public toilet and is printed on
toilet paper. (_Telegraph_, 25 May) [AIP] _Must ... restrain ...
comment._
AS OTHERS DATE US, or, _Wasn't That Hal Clement In The 1950s?_ 'It was
in the 1960s and 1970s, for example, that science fiction enjoyed
probably its greatest flourishing, and 'hard' sf -- speculative fiction
with its roots in established science and maths as opposed to the pseudo-
magical apparatus of ray guns and force fields -- became established as
a form.' (Sam Leith, _Financial Times_, 9 May) [MMW]
MYTHOPOEIC AWARDS shortlist: ADULT LITERATURE Carol Berg, _Flesh and

Guin, _Lavinia_; Patricia A. McKillip, _The Bell at Sealey Head_; Gene

WHICH SF STORY WAS THAT? 'The sci-fi scenario of a text-speak generation
communicating largely with its thumbs is the stuff of parents'
nightmares.' (E. Jane Dickson, _Independent_, 2 May)
IMMORTALITY. A Euro15m museum devoted to Herge's 80-year-old creation
Tintin opens in Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium, on 2 June. [AIP]
OUTRAGED LETTERS. _Fred Lerner_ offers another view of the editorial
comment mocked in _A262_ and by Ursula K. Le Guin above: 'It depends upon
how you define "science fiction". If your approach is thematic, or based
on narrative strategy, then of course most of Ballard -- as well as
_Brave New World_ and _1984_ -- are science fiction. But if you use the
definition-by-provenance approach -- "science fiction is that body of
literature produced within the science fiction community" -- then _Brave
New World_ and _1984_ would be excluded. You may have read my arguments
for that approach to definition in _Lofgeornost_ (or in "A Bookman's
Fantasy"); I'll just say here that there are a lot of things that can
meaningfully be said about the literature that Our Gang produces that
isn't applicable to Huxley and Orwell.' Crushed again.
C.O.A. _Wm. Breiding_, PO Box 961, Dellslow, WV 26531, USA. _Lilian
Edwards_, 41a Montgomery Rd, Sheffield, S7 1LN.
RANDOM FANDOM. _James Bacon_ repeated his uncannily convincing
impersonation of Bob Shaw reading one of his Serious Scientific Talks (at
Plokta.con).
_Ann Green_ (1961-2008) is now commemorated at her old workplace,
Solihull Hospital, with the monthly Green Star cash award for exceptional
staff who 'make a difference'. [SG]
_Kim Huett_ has begun an online archive of the first ever Australian
sf fan newsletter, _Futurian Observer_ (1940-1942). See
efanzines.com/FutObs/ ...
_Sue Jones_ has been out of things since 2007 with what proved to
be thyroid trouble, now effectively treated; she apologizes to readers
holding their breath for the 25th issue of her fanzine _Tortoise_.
_Ian Sorensen_'s latest fan musical -- again at Plokta.con -- was
titled _Harry Plokta and the Half-Cut Prince_. I daren't say more for
fear of lawsuits.
THE UNIVERSE NEXT DOOR. 'There's been widespread condemnation of North
Yorkshire's decision to carry out an underground nuclear test.' (BBC
Radio Five Live, reporting on [actually] North Korea) [BBu] Fear and
trembling somehow failed to afflict the ancient enemy, Lancashire.
FANFUNDERY. _GUFF:_ Pat McMurray's 2004 trip report is available, either
as b/w hardcopy for Pounds4 ($8 AUS) or password-protected colour PDF

Hermitage Grove, Bootle, Merseyside, L20 6DR. PDF buyers should give an

_DUFF:_ Emma Hawkes won the 2009 northbound race from Australasia
to this year's Worldcon in Canada. The other candidates were Chris
Nelson, David Cake & Grant Watson (joint), and Alison Barton.
THOG'S MASTERCLASS. _Athletics Dept._ 'Astro's foot continued in a
perfect arc over his head, throwing him in a heap on the ground.' (Carey
Rockwell, _Stand By For Mars!_, 1952) [AR]
_Dept of Laser Vision._ 'His eyes were cutting into Russell's face,
peeling off layer after layer of misleading mannerism and baring the
naked fear in the man.' (Algis Budrys, 'First to Serve', _Astounding_,
May 1954) [CG]
_When Things Go Runny Dept._ 'Embarrassment is something I can feel
in my flesh, like a handful of sun-warmed mud clapped on my head. ... The
embarrassment had turned runny. It was horrifying my scalp along a
spreading frontier.' (Neal Stephenson, _Anathem_, 2008) [DL]

SCANDAL ROCKS UK SF! Shocked by our country's present climate of moral
squalor, _SFX_ magazine sent mass email to its freelances, warning
that henceforth everything must be squeaky-clean. No more expense
claims for moats, duck islands, Pounds8000 tv sets, already-paid-off
mortgages or zombie servants' quarters ... oops, _Ansible_ seems to
have strayed into the wrong script. This teacup-scale storm was
triggered by a hapless freelance (Saxon Bullock) giving a rave review
to a book he'd previously copy-edited. Hence the _SFX_ directive to
try and avoid seeming conflicts of interest. The issues are discussed
in this thread at Torque Control:
