Best Editor Short Form Hugo: Eligible Works from 2020

Posted on December 20, 2020 by JJ

By JJ: To assist Hugo nominators, listed below are the editors of more than 1,000 short form works published for the first time in 2020.

Note that all of the works labeled “novella”, “novelette”, and “short story” are eligible in the corresponding Hugo fiction categories. If a work is not labeled, or it is labeled “short fiction”, its length has yet to be determined. Collections and Anthologies are not eligible for nomination as whole works, but the original pieces of fiction they contain are each eligible in the appropriate length category. Poetry and nonfiction are not eligible.

Note that the Short Form Editors listed below may, or may not, be eligible — that is, have the equivalent of at least 4 anthologies and/or magazine issues in their career, with at least 1 of them published in 2020. If I know for sure that an editor has the equivalent of at least 4 eligible works, they are labeled as “eligibility verified”.

These credits have been accumulated from Acknowledgments sections and copyright pages in works, eligibility posts, short fiction venue mastheads, the ISFDB, and other sources on the internet.

You can see the full combined spreadsheet of Editor and Artist credits here (I will be continuing to update this as short fiction venues post elibibility lists and I get more information).

Feel free to add missing 2020-original works and the name of their editors in the comments, and I will get them included in the main post. Self-published works may or may not be added to the list at my discretion.

PLEASE DON’T ADD GUESSES.

If you are able to confirm credits from Acknowledgments sections, copyright pages, or by contacting authors and/or editors, then go ahead and add them in comments. If you have questions or corrections, please add those also.

Authors, Editors, and Publishers are welcome to post in comments here, or to send their eligibility lists to jjfile770 [at] gmail [dot] com.

Some of the magazines listed below are Prozines and are not eligible in the Hugo Semiprozine category. For a list of Semiprozines vs. Prozines, see Semiprozine.org.

Thanks so much for this, JJ! I’ll be keeping an eye out for other short fiction lists for you!

One that’s missing is Andy Cox, editor of Interzone. I don’t have all this year’s issues to hand to be able to list the stories. They are listed on the website, but it doesn’t say which category they fall into unlike the contents page of the magazine.

ISFDB shows the anthology as 9 original and 6 reprint stories, so I’ve listed the originals. Thanks for the update.

You are welcome. The anthology and the magazine issue have been added.

dave ring: Also I think these folks are missing
These have been added.

dave ring: Colin Sullivan, editor, Nature Futures
Is Sullivan still the editor this year? I couldn’t find anything to confirm that.

Thanks for these updates.
Andrew (not Werdna) on December 21, 2020 at 4:45 pm said:

@JJ: I just got a rejection from “Futures” signed by Colin Sullivan, so he’s still got that job.
Andrew (not Werdna) on December 21, 2020 at 4:48 pm said:

Also, Torie Bosch (https://slate.com/author/torie-bosch) is the editor of the “Future Tense” project at Slate.com, which includes fiction by writers like Karl Schroeder, Tobias Buckell, and S. B. Divya. List of stories here https://slate.com/tag/future-tense-fiction (one story a month – and one non-fiction article covering the same theme as each month’s story, too).

Right, but that’s for the entire magazine, not just for Futures. However, I’ll take your signed letter as conclusive evidence. 🙂
JJ on December 21, 2020 at 5:06 pm said:

Andrew (not Werdna): Torie Bosch is the editor of the “Future Tense” project at Slate.com… List of stories here

Unfortunately, I’d have to go into every link to get the information for these stories because that index doesn’t separate the fiction from the nonfiction and doesn’t even list the titles for most of the stories. They’re not listed in ISFDB yet either, so I’ve added a general entry for Bosch — thanks for that.
Andrew (not Werdna) on December 21, 2020 at 5:16 pm said:

JJ: This weekend, I’ll go through the list and note which ones are fiction and provide titles and authors (and links), if you’d like.
JJ on December 21, 2020 at 5:56 pm said:

Andrew (not Werdna): I’ll go through the list and note which ones are fiction and provide titles and authors (and links), if you’d like.

That will likely be the only way they’ll get individually listed here. I’ve already spent hundreds of hours accumulating data and creating these posts, so any lists that I can’t just scrape off the ISFDB or another website aren’t going to get done by me. 🙂
JJ on December 21, 2020 at 6:00 pm said:

dave ring: I’d love to point to these two additional works

Do you have the story lengths (novella, novelette, or short story) for these stories?

novella: 17,500 – 40,000 words
novelette: 7,500 – 17,499 words
short story: < 7,500 words

Thanks for that, Laura. The list seems to be missing several stories, though.

(also, Anthropocene Rag, as a novel, and Locus Reviews, as nonfiction, do not qualify as Editor Short Form Hugo credits)

JJ: also, Anthropocene Rag, as a novel, and Locus Reviews, as nonfiction, do not qualify as Editor Short Form Hugo credits

I guess those are the “Professional Achievement (WFA)” part of that section. Odd that he didn’t list all the stories though. I have ebooks of both anthologies so I’ll check the lengths tomorrow.
JJ on December 21, 2020 at 9:15 pm said:

Laura: Odd that he didn’t list all the stories though. I have ebooks of both anthologies so I’ll check the lengths tomorrow.

Please check the extended copyright sections (with the copyright year for each story) at the back, too. It’s possible that those stories are not original to the anthology, but were previously published in venues not tracked by ISFDB.
Laura on December 21, 2020 at 9:22 pm said:

JJ: Yes, I thought they were all original, but I’ll be sure to doublecheck.

Laura: No reprints. All copyright dates for individual pieces are 2020.

Thanks for making the time and effort to do a word count of those. The poem is not eligible and has been removed. The others have been updated.

Laura: For The Book of Dragons, in addition to the cover, Rovina Cai also did interior illustrations. The cover design is by Yeon Kim.

Thanks for the additional credits, they have been added to the spreadsheet. Cai also did interior illustrations for Come Tumbling Down and Elatsoe. Her style is really lovely.

No problem. Looks like they skipped October – when they post December’s story I’ll post the info.

Neil Clarke has listed Clarkesworld’s 2020 stories.

Last I looked, there was a non-fiction article listed with the novelettes (“Separated at Birth? Occultism, Science Fiction, and Why People Can’t Tell Them Apart” by Mark Cole). I left a comment so it may be removed by the time you see this. Story counts listed at the top did not include the non-fiction piece.

Thanks, Laura. I’ve updated the credits minus the nonfiction piece. 🙂

Nearly a month later …. JJ, they are all short stories, except for “The Currant Dumas” by LD Lewis, which is over 7500 and thus a novelette. Sorry for missing the reply!

Hi Oghenechovwe Donald Ekpeki, I have not been able to find any evidence that Issue 2 has been published yet.

Also, it’s really not cool for someone to keep promoting themselves as eligible on Twitter when they know that they’re not actually eligible. Editors who wish to have a career in the field in the long term are not doing themselves any favors with short-term attempts to circumvent eligibility for Hugo Awards.

Any ineligible finalists which have made the ballot in the past have been removed from the ballot when the Hugo Admins were informed of the lack of eligibility.

I noticed that “A Mastery of German” by Marian Denise Moore in the Dominion anthology was on the Locus List as a novelette so I went on a search for more info and found this post from one of the editors which also lists it as a novelette. That post and a couple other reviews mention that “Emily” by the same author is a poem instead of a short story. Also the co-editor’s last name is Ekpeki rather than his first.
