Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror Forums

As a note to all here, my home computer gave up the ghost a couple weeks ago (motherboard fried) so I'm without a machine to do updates on except for my work PC which I can only use at lunch and after hours.  The after hours part is what stinks.  Half the time when I stay late to try and catch up on WWEnd stuff I get rooked into doing more client work.  You can imagine how thrilled I am with that scenario.

I'm looking into finding a temp machine to get me by for a few months whilst I await the coming of the new MacPro sometime in December.  I decided (and my wife allowed me to treat myself to the latest and greatest machine some months back and my PC crapped out at a most inopportune time.  Damn you, Murphy!

Anyway, that's why the updates have been so sparse across the whole site and the blog.  One day I'll get back on track but until then thanks for your patience.

D'oh!  Thanks, Graham, for pointing that out.  I forgot to flag her in the database.  It's fixed now.

Thanks for adding these.

No problem.  We're in the middle of adding a batch right now.  I'll post all the books here when the rest get input.  It feels good to finally get to some of these requests

OK, I just realized that Jonathan had finished the batch this morning so here are the newest books:

We also got around to a bunch of non-WoGF book requests which you can see in this thread.

Happy reading!

Time for some new books.  We've added a bunch of new authors over the last few weeks along with more Barbara Hambly than you can shake s stick at.  Rachecl Bach is on the list now... since you said pretty please

Here are some of the most recent books added by women authors.  Lots of Julian May, Ann Aguirre and Melanie Rawn among others this time.  A little too late for the challenge I suppose but we don't intend to stop adding new women just because the WoGF is winding down.  Happy reading!

See some other new stuff in the general request thread too.

Those are on the list and thank you for supporting WWEnd and the challenge!  It has been a lot of hard work but it sure has been fun too.

On the list!

I tell ya, I'm feeling the itch to add a new award and the Aurealis has been on my mind for a long time.  Not sure that will be the next but it's in the running for sure.  We tend to look for the low hanging fruit first, which this really isn't, but it would add a bunch of new authors to the site which I really like.  I'll look at our list again and see what looks good.  It won't be until after the new year though since we're planning the 2014 challenge still.

I wish I could but we're just not ready to reveal it.  We met last night and finalized the plan but we have some adjustments to the tracking code to make before we can kick it off.  We may be a few days late launching so look for it after New Year's.  We think it's going to be really good.  It's not one that has been done before as far as we can tell.  We're predicting it will be bigger than the WoGF but we've got our fingers crossed just the same.
