2011 Parsec Submissions are done! …...

and Arioch is pretty burnt out. I put in 6 hours yesterday & 14 hours today getting all of our submissions ready. I repeatedly underestimate how long these take to get done. Enormous thanks to Beth_Ailis for her suggestions on KISSYMAN & THE GENTLEMAN; Those were a lifesaver. Here's the links if you want to listen to what I submitted:

Neighbors Submission (Best Speculative Fiction - Short Form)

Kissyman & the Gentleman Submission (Best Speculative Fiction - Novella Form)

Loyalty Submission (Best Speculative Fiction - Short Form)

Ancestor Submission (Best Speculative Fiction - Long Form)

Arioch Morningstar Submission (Best New Speculative Fiction Podcaster/Team)

5 Finalists will be selected from each category. These will be announced near the beginning of August. The winner of each category will be announced at the Awards Banquet, which is held at DragonCon in early September.

Do you want me to post links to the submissions after they're done?

Re: 2011 Parsec Submissions are done! …...

I'm fairly pleased with how it turned out. Now I have to knock out the other four. I'm guessing they will be significantly more difficult. I did discover a new aspect to the evaluation process, and hope to take advantage of that. I'll likely just alter the name of this thread again. Off to work again.

Oh, btw, the Parsec Steering committee totally RAWKS!! Originally we had until 000 EST, but they changed it to 000 Hawaii time this afternoon. That gives me an extra six hours, which is frakkin' awesome since I'm a night owl. And I repeatedly underestimate how long it takes me to put together these submissions.

FNB, great work! And my complement was not influenced in the least bit by listening to the ANCESTOR submission. ;)

Re: 2011 Parsec Submissions are done! …...

She helped out with ANCESTOR selections, and I was glad to be able to mix things up as far as Scott's writing style goes. I didn't want to do all thriller/action scenes, so I tried to put in some character development, humour, and romance in addition to the classic Sigler blood and violence. ANCESTOR is my favorite book of Scott's, so I will be uber psyched if we win in September. 

The KISSYMAN & THE GENTLEMAN submission is almost verbatim what Beth picked out. She was off on a few episodes and I expanded some of the time stamps, but the scenes I used are the ones she selected. I couldn't remember that storyline at *all* and I didn't have a print version to reference. Treeware is far superior to audio for quick reference.

With treeware I can always seem to remember the approx location of an item. With the audio segments I get completely lost.

Re: 2011 Parsec Submissions are done! …...

I'm not sure if you saw my heckling of you in a different thread or this is a coincidence.

And thanks for the compliment as well. I'm working on producing some of the audio from SiglerFest so those who didn't go can experience at least part of it.
