The challenge is almost over, but Gene Wolfe has been added to the list. The SFWA press release is here:

http://www.sfwa.org/2012/12/2012-damon-knight-memorial-grand-master-awarded-to-gene-wolfe/

Who should be next? My pick is C. J. Cherryh.

Scott, you beat me to it.  I was going to post it in the blog and here at lunch but opted to go eat delicious BBQ instead.

He has been added to the list so if you're a speed reader you have a couple weeks to get him in under the wire.  Anybody going to try?

I think Cherryh would be an excellent choice.  I wish they're go ahead and pick more than one a year.  Some of these folks are getting up in age and they can't win posthumously.  There does not seem to be any reason not to do it.  Thoughts?
