Last week I posted on having made the shortlist<\/a> for the 2014 Sir Julius Vogel Award <\/a>for \u201cServices to Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror.<\/strong>\u201d I also posted the citation, which includes mention of my \u201c\u2026 blog and \u2026 space in SF Signal and [my] presence at events to inform the world\u201d <\/em>of New Zealand SFF.<\/p>\n

For those who might be interested to find out more in what is now several easy posts \";-)\", I am collating some of the material here in a series of posts (because one or even two was going to be Way Too Long!) Interviews was Wednesday 16 and Guest Posts\/Features on Thursday 17 — and today we’re on to some of my feature posts on New Zealand speculative fiction.<\/p>\n

Being A New Zealand SpecFic Writer<\/a>
\nI wrote this NZ SpecFic Blogging week in 2010<\/p>\n

Speculative Fiction In New Zealand<\/a>
\nGood discussion on this post, which may be why it got a link on TOR.com<\/a> — putting Enzed on the international map, ay! \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

Is There A Distinctively New Zealand Speculative Fiction?<\/a>
\nAnother post from 2011… Also one of the “most-read” from that year.<\/p>\n

Maori Mythology in New Zealand SFF: A Few Favourite Tales<\/a>
\nI posted this in early 2012 and it was one of my “most read” posts of that year and still gets regular hits.<\/p>\n

Margaret Mahy, 1936 \u2013 2012: A Personal Tribute<\/a>
\nThis came later in 2012 and although the cause was sad, I didn’t feel that I could let Margaret Mahy and her amazing contribution to NZ literature and also Children’s \/YA speculative fiction literature, pass without salute.<\/p>\n

Waitangi Day: Celebrating Us \u2014 In Literature <\/a>
\n— including speculative fiction literature, as it happens…<\/p>\n

Next Up:<\/strong><\/p>\n

For tomorrow, I think I’ll look at “A Peek Inside Tales for Canterbury”<\/a> as a\u00a0 specific blog series, with the \u201cWhat I\u2019m Reading\u201d<\/a> posts on Monday.<\/p>\n

And then I think we might be all done here. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
