Shoreline of Infinity wins British Fantasy Society Award 2018 for best magazine/periodical.
The award was presented at the weekend at the annual British Fantasy Convention held this year in Chester.
This was our first nomination, and we were up against some pretty tough competition; we are, as you can imagine, dead chuffed.
Shoreline of Infinity Science Fiction Magazine was launched in July 2015 and to win the award for Britain’s best science fiction/fantasy magazine in such a short time is an honour indeed.
We’re based in Edinburgh, but the magazine is read world-wide and it’s a great privilege to present Scotland at its finest in genre fiction. Shoreline of Infinity is truly international: we’re proud to showcase not only Scottish creative talent, but also writers and artists from all over the world.
The team behind Shoreline of Infinity are: myself, Noel Chidwick – co-founder, Editor-in-Chief and Editor; Mark Toner – co-founder, Art Director; and Russell Jones – Deputy Editor and Poetry Editor.
More than that, we have a great team of volunteers working with us, including Pippa Goldschmidt and Caroline Grebbell who edited Issue 11, Samantha Dolan as Reviews Editor and Monica Burns, Iain Maloney, Andrew J Wilson and Jo McLaughlin all in various capacities.
We’re also grateful to everyone who has pitched in as submissions readers and proof readers.
We’ve been blessed with great stories, poems, artwork, reviews, articles, interviews from talented writers and artists, new and not so new, so thanks to you all for your contributions.
And thanks to our readers and subscribers who have kindly offered their groats in exchange for our words and pictures. Long may that continue.
On a personal note, Shoreline of Infinity is my thank you to Scotland and the people of Scotland for being so welcoming to me when I came to study and live in Edinburgh back in 1981, and for being a wonderful, nurturing place for developing new ideas. The spirit of the Scottish Enlightenment lives on.
