Hi,

I just noticed WWE doesn't have a listing for the James Tiptree Jr. Award, which has been awarded since 1991. Lots of good books are missing that nod.

Yeah, the Tiptree is the last of the biggies that we don't have. It's been started but has not been completed because the Tip has short fiction and long fiction mixed in the same award. We have all the long fiction in the DB already. We have to make a bunch of updates to the site to handle short fiction and those are partly done but other updates keep getting in the way. Once they are done our Uber Users will go to town adding the shorts and the award will be posted. So, it's in the works but I don't have a reliable timeline to offer so I'll just say sometime this year... fingers crossed.

I figured it was something like that. Surprised you'll be adding the short fic. I figured you'd just asterisk those award years.

But it's cool that you're working on it! Looking forward to the finished product!

For the people who are waiting for this one. I added the last of the missing short nominees this morning. Everything should be in no. No promises on when Dave will have time to create the award page though
