Sci Fiction

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sci Fiction was at one time the leading online magazine for science fiction. The magazine was created by the Sci Fi Channel and edited by Ellen Datlow who previously had edited two other online magazines. The first was the online incarnation of OMNI and the second was called Event Horizon.

The webzine starting publishing in May 2000. It first made a splash when Linda Nagata's "Goddesses" won the Nebula Award for Best Novella for 2000. It was the first time that a piece of fiction originally published on a website won a Nebula. In 2002 Ellen Datlow won her first Hugo Award for Best Editor. In 2003 stories from the webzine won three awards, the Nebula Awards for Best Short Story ("What I Didn't See" by Karen Joy Fowler) and Best Novelette ("The Empire of Ice Cream" by Jeffrey Ford), and the Theodore Sturgeon Award for Lucius Shepard's novella "Over Yonder". In 2005, Datlow won her second Hugo Award for Best Editor and the website itself won a Hugo for Best Website. She also won her first Locus Award for Best Editor in 2005.

Despite winning ten major science fiction and fantasy awards, in late 2005 the SciFi Channel announced that it would be shutting down the magazine. [1]. This decision was evidently made because the magazine was not a major revenue generator for the channel.
