I have been fortunate enought sic to 'discover' many major new writers such as Orson Scott Card Spider Robinson George R. R. Martin Robert Forward and others. Yet there have been some stories and writers which I liked as much as any prize-winner yet for some reason or another never attracted the attention they deserved from the science fiction audience." The prospectus includes excerpts from Walter Tevis' "Rent Control" Alfred Bester's "MS Found in a Coconut" James Gunn's "Fault" Paul J. Nahin's "The Reunion" John Morressy's "The Last Jerry Fagin Show" etc. New York: Omni Publications International, Ltd., circa [1982]. paperback
