In a post a few days ago on the 2007 World Fantasy Awards, I gave readers some suggestions on getting Howard projects nominated again this year. In all the hubbub and excitement I forgot to mention one of the most obvious ones: [redacted]’s Blood & Thunder for “Special Award: Professional.” It would be nice to see that book win and provide Howard with a World Fantasy Award to bookend the Award given to Tom Shippey in 2001 for J.R.R. Tolkien: Author of the Century. Be sure to remember Mark when you’re filling out your ballots.
