First Annual Mr. Pointy Awards for
Buffy Studies Scholarship
The
editors of Slayage have inaugurated
annual awards to honor the best Buffy
Studies scholarship. The awards will be given at the Slayage Conference on Buffy the Vampire Slayer in Nashville,
May 28-30, 2004. (At the left is a picture of Mary Alice Money and Rhonda V.
Wilcox with Mr. P.) Go here to see who won the
first Mr. Pointy Awards. Go here to see the 2005
Award winners.
Awards will be given for books (Long Mr. Pointy) and essays (Short Mr. Pointy)--both to be given at the SCBtVS's Friday night banquet--and for the best paper at the SCBtVS (Mr. Pointy Paper)--to be given at the closing ceremonies of the SCBtVS.
The editors anticipate that an award for the best of the first five years of Buffy scholarship will be given in 2005 for work published 1999--2004. For the first annual award, however, the work nominated must have been published in 2003 and may have appeared in a book, traditional journal, electronic journal, or on a website.
