### THE FIVE STAVES ###

WENDY ALDISS's Kickstarter fundraiser for _My Father's Things_, a lavish photobook of Brian Aldiss memorabilia, reached and passed its GBP6,800 target on 2 November. She thanks the _Ansible_ readers who helped.

ANTHONY BURGESS, in a verse first published in the huge _Collected Poems_ (out this month), warned his audience: 'Advice: don't read / A Clockwork Orange -- it's a foul farrago _[two lines nervously omitted here]_ Read Hamlet, Shelley, Keats, Doctor Zhivago.' (_Guardian_, 8 November)

ADAM-TROY AND JUDI CASTRO lost their home in November owing to identity thieves who drained their savings and hijacked mortgage payments. A Gofundme campaign to keep them afloat has raised more than $35,000, but they're still having to live expensively in hotels.

NIGELLA LAWSON, famous tv cook, embraced her inner fan by comparing a dish in preparation to _gagh_ -- 'That's a Klingon delicacy.' Which is made from serpent worms, preferably served live. Er um. [LW]

ROBERT MACFARLANE, UK author and academic, was asked what book he couldn't finish: 'Frank Herbert's _Dune_. Wild landscapes, weird nature, science fiction -- this really should be my jam. But no; the violence came to sicken me by halfway through, as did aspects of the politics. So I junked it.' (Interview, _New York Times_, 19 November) [AIP]

SHEREE RENEE THOMAS will replace C.C. Finlay as editor of _The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction_ as of the March/April 2021 issue. Gordon Van Gelder continues as publisher. (Facebook, 3 November) [GVG]

BUD WEBSTER (1952-2016) has a new memorial: the SFWA Legacy Kit, helping authors -- not only SFWA members -- organize their literary estates. See www.sfwa.org/member-links/projects/estate/legacy-kit/.

### INFINITELY IMPROBABLE ###

AS OTHERS AVOID US. Fareed Zakaria on genre preferences: 'I read everything, except for fantasy and horror. The latter I find particularly pointless. Why pay money to be scared? There is one exception, Stephen King, who writes so well that I will on rare occasions overcome my resistance.' ('By the Book' interview, _New York Times_, 6 November) [JB]

AWARDS. _Goldsmiths Prize_ of GBP10,000 for mould-breaking fiction written and published in the UK or Eire: _The Sunken Land Begins to Rise Again_ by M. John Harrison. [L] 'Harrison [...] has described the novel as not "science fiction or folk horror or psychogeography, but it contains parodic elements of all three, and more".' (_Guardian_, 11 November)
     _Mystery Writers of America Grand Masters_ now include Charlaine Harris.
     _Rotsler Award_ for life achievement as fan artist: Alan White.

PUBLISHERS AND SINNERS. Harlan Ellison's literary executor J. Michael Straczynski promised that the long-stagnant anthology _The Last Dangerous Visions_ -- announced in Ellison's introduction to _Again, Dangerous Visions_ (1972) as coming in six months -- would be completed and ready for submission to publishers in Spring 2021. (Twitter, 13 November) The many stories cited in past contents lists but withdrawn and often published elsewhere will not be included; others unspecified are to be dropped; new fiction never seen by Ellison will be added; as to whether any Ellison story introductions (regarded as highlights of _DV_ and _A,DV_) were actually written for _TLDV_, there is a great silence.
     Of course Chris Priest was asked to comment.... (_Guardian_, 16 November)

AS OTHERS SEE US. John Wain noted that C.S. Lewis 'developed in later years a telltale interest in science fiction, which is usually a reliable sign of imaginative bankruptcy.' ('A Great Clerke' in _C.S. Lewis at the Breakfast Table_ ed. James T Como, 1979) [VS]
     _Pauline Kael_ on _2001_: 'It's fun to think about Kubrick really doing every dumb thing he wanted to do, building enormous science-fiction sets and equipment, never even bothering to figure out what to do with them... maybe some people love _2001_ just because Kubrick did all that stupid stuff, acted out a kind of super sci-fi nut's fantasy.' (_Harper's Magazine_, February 1969) [MMW]

R.I.P. _Joseph Altairac_ (1957-2020), French sf scholar who published books on Wells and van Vogt, the fanzine _Lovecraftian Studies_, and (with Guy Costes) _Retrofictions_ (2018), a two-volume encyclopedia of Francophone genre fiction, died on 9 November aged 63. [SJ]

AS OTHERS APPRECIATE US. A good word from Shaun Bythell's enjoyably grumpy _Seven Kinds of People You Find in Bookshops_ (2020): 'A postscript brings the tally up to nine with a description of Cliens perfectus (Perfect Customer). Among the subtypes in this vanishingly small contingent are the ingenuously passionate readers whom Bythell prizes above the misers, time wasters and poseurs. He has nothing but love for the collectors of books about steam locomotives, rare editions of modern fiction, and -- in their uniform of black T-shirt and white trainers -- science-fiction fans.' (_Guardian_ review, 11 November) [SL] How did I survive all those decades in sf fandom while shockingly out of uniform?

COURT CIRCULAR. SFWA and Alan Dean Foster launched their campaign #DisneyMustPay on 18 November. Since Disney took over publishing rights to ADF's multiple _Alien_ and _Star Wars_ novelizations in 2015, the books continue to be sold but the royalties specified in the contracts are no longer paid. As SFWA grimly puts it, 'Disney's argument is that they have purchased the rights but not the obligations of the contract. In other words, they believe they have the right to publish work, but are not obligated to pay the writer no matter what the contract says. If we let this stand, it could set precedent to fundamentally alter the way copyright and contracts operate in the United States. All a publisher would have to do to break a contract would be to sell it to a sibling company.' See www.sfwa.org/2020/11/18/disney-must-pay/.

_DOCTOR WHO AND THE KIPPER_, a storyline new to fans, was created by BBC house style (no italics or quotes for titles) in their Geoffrey Palmer obit. Next words: 'and the Corpse episode of Fawlty Towers.' [BB]

MAGAZINE SCENE. _Starburst_ magazine announced that because of pandemic-induced distribution problems the printed issue #476 -- expected in November -- is on hold until April 2021. Meanwhile, online and video updates should continue at starburstmagazine.com. [SG]

THE DEAD PAST. _20 Years Ago:_ 'David Eddings chilled our blood in a Del Rey newsletter interview: "The first thing a fantasist needs to do is to invent a world and draw a map. Do the map first." Silly old Tolkien, starting with languages!' (_Ansible_ 161, December 2000)
     'Recent research into the catchphrase of Discworld's Librarian led to a possible literary source. James Joyce, _Ulysses_, 1922, p424 of Penguin Modern Classics edition: "Ook." Terry Pratchett comments: "Dunno. Never read more than a few pages of Joyce -- thought he was a berk."' (_Ibid_)
     _90 Years Ago_, a UK item that should have run in _A399_: 'The first meeting of our first fan group was held in Ilford on 27th October 1930.' [RHa]

PUBLISHERS AND SINNERS II. Penguin Random House (i.e. Bertelsmann) plans to buy the Simon & Schuster publishing imprint from ViacomCBS for $2.18 billion. (_Publishers Weekly_, 25 November)

FANFUNDERY. _TAFF:_ John Coxon's report on his 2011 TAFF tour -- titled _Best. Trip. Ever._ -- was published last month as a paperback and ebook, with all proceeds to the fund. See taff.org.uk/#Nov2020.
     Coming soon to the free ebooks library: _The Harpy Stateside_ by UK fan Ella Parker, whose unfinished report of a long 1961 US/Canadian trip is here expanded by Rob Hansen with others' published tales of her travels; _Atom Abroad_, Arthur (Atom) Thomson's lively 1964 TAFF trip report; and the immense _Ansible Second Series 2011-2020_ (issues 282-401).

RANDOM FANDOM. _Greg Ketter_ of DreamHaven Books in Minneapolis was assaulted -- along with his employee Ryan -- and robbed on 9 November; the miscreants escaped pursuit. '2020,' he wrote philosophically, 'is just the gift that keeps on giving.' (Facebook) [MJL]
     _Outworlds 71/Afterworlds_, a 500+ page memorial to _Outworlds_ editor Bill Bowers (1943-2005) was published in November by a US collective and sent to his entire mailing list. It's $20 via Amazon with proceeds to the fan funds. Is this monster huger than the legendary Walt Willis issue of _Warhoon_? Not quite; that's 616pp and weighs nearly a pound more....

THOG'S MASTERCLASS. _Male Gaze Dept._ 'With each breath she took, her breasts swelled out through the cloth, nodding wisely at me.' (Ledru Baker Jr, _Brute Madness_, 1961) [RWS]
     _Mission Statement._ 'I shall ride the galaxy on wings of flame, my fleet of starships fuelled and powered by my discovery. I shall rule as no man has ever ruled, and you want me to give up that for the empty praises of cowardly fools?' (Volsted Gridban [E.C. Tubb], _Fugitive of Time_, 1953) [BA]
     _Big Science Dept._ '"Is this the great invention?" "Part of it, the rest is a complex mathematical equation impossible to duplicate."'
     '... a blast of energy which will literally jerk the electrons and neutrons from their orbits.' (_Ibid_) [BA]
     _Trouser Racing._ 'He pulled on his clothes as she scrambled to do the same.' (Jane Jordan, _The Beekeeper's Daughter_, 2016) [RC]
     _The Last Dangerous Horticulture._ '... her nipples are like man-devouring flowers ...' (Frederick Turner, _A Double Shadow_, 1978) [BA]
