***Jean Lorrah's BLOOD WILL TELL wins
literary award***
Each year the Lord Ruthven Assembly gives awards for the best fiction and
nonfiction works on the subject of vampires. The winners for the year
2001 are
Fiction: BLOOD WILL TELL by Jean Lorrah
Non-fiction: FOOD FOR THE DEAD by Michel E. Bell
There were over 150 vampire novels published in 2001, including new books
by Anne Rice and P. N. Elrod. The Lord Ruthven Assembly is the group of
scholars of vampire literature and lore who meet every year in association
with the International Conference on the Fantastic.
Jean reports, "I wasn't expecting the honor, and didn't even know my book
was being considered. It's always exciting to win an award, and this one
comes from people who really deeply study vampire literature, so it means
a
great deal to me."

Sime~Gen Inc. You can find out more about her work at

ime~Gen is a fictional universe brought to life in 1969 by Jacqueline
Lichtenberg in her novel House
of Zeor. The series of books by Lichtenberg and another
author, Jean Lorrah, depicts a world in which humanity has split into
two sub-species: Sime, who at puberty develop tentacles that they use
to drain the life force from the remainder, known as Gen. This
unstable state of affairs engenders slavery, betrayal, raids,
planet-wide war and a wealth of doomed passion.
