papersky is developing an award to present to james_nicoll, at her upcoming book-release-party-cum-con, Farthingcon. For various reasons, ranging from "James Nicoll is a cool guy and deserves and award" to "to annoy the annoying Wikipedia editors." Which, naturally, are both good reasons to give James Nicoll an award.
So, Lis and I were talking. . .
IAN: Do you suppose Jo Walton has actually designed the James Nicoll award yet?
LIS: We could mention that we know someone (sunspiral) who designed and built Hugo bases. What do you think an award for James Nicoll should look like?
IAN: I think it should have pointy bits all over it.
LIS: And a big lens!
IAN: Maybe a lighter stuck in there somewhere.
LIS: And catnip.
Seriously, though, we were thinking that Nerf might be a better route to go. Do we know anyone who does casting of foam rubber?
