Letters to Tiptree | Alexandra Pierce, Alisa Krasnostein
4 posts | 3 read | 1 to read
In celebration of the 100th anniversary of Alice Sheldons birth, and in recognition of the enormous influence of both Tiptree and Sheldon on the field, Twelfth Planet Press is publishing a selection of thoughtful letters written by science fiction and fantasys writers, editors, critics and fans to celebrate her, to recognise her work, and maybe in some cases to finish conversations set aside nearly thirty years ago.

Well, times change, and removing Tiptree's name from this award does not erase her work or influence, but I am heartbroken by this choice.

I've been meaning to get my hands on this for ages & the arrival of the (for various reasons exciting & infuriating) Locus Awards short lists seemed a good enough excuse. Includes letters to & from Alice B. Sheldon (who wrote pseudonymously as Tiptree), a fascinating & truly original voice in SFF.
