Congratulations to The Apex Book of World SF editor Lavie Tidhar for receiving a Last Drink Bird Head award in the category “International Activism.”
What the heck are the Last Drink Bird Head awards?
As Jeff VanderMeer states on his blog: “The purpose of the awards is to celebrate those in the genre community who enrich us with their time, energy, and words, often for causes greater than themselves. Finalists for this year’s award were chosen for efforts in 2008 and/or 2009. The winners will be announced at the Last Drink Bird Head Party at the World Fantasy Convention in San Jose, California (October 29, 8p.m., Imperial Parlor, 20th floor). Winners will receive a bird head figurine, a certificate, and chocolate.” Seems like a noble enough purpose to us.
One of the factors cited that contributed to Lavie’s nomination was his Apex anthology The Apex Book of World SF. Don’t miss out and order today!
