It’s so cute!
Rats! I forgot to watch the livestream. 🙁 Then again, Svengoolie was playing Curse of the Demon (the American cut of Night of the Demon, so I was preoccupied…)
Fascinating tweet from winner Gabino Iglesias.
He is the first and only Latino to win a Stoker Award for best novel.
Cynthia Pelayo was the first Latina to win a Stoker Award for poetry and the first Puerto Rican-born author to win a Stoker.
Yet neither author has a Wikipedia page?! What?! 🙁
Major congrats to all the winners! Additions to the bookcase of eternity!
Finally some respect for John Saul. So glad to see that he won a lifetime achievement award.
