Old News: Slow River Won the Lambda Literary Award
This post exists as something to point to the next time someone argues that my second novel, Slow River (1995), did not win the Lesbian Gay Science Fiction/Fantasy Lambda Literary Award in 1996. Yes, I know that several databases—including Wikipedia1 and the Lambda Literary Foundation itself2—are confused on this point. Yes, Melissa Scott is listed as very deservedly winning the same award in the same year for Shadow Man; she did; it was a tie.
Why are so many databases wrong? No idea. The Internet Speculative Fiction Database is right, and my website is right; the paperback reprint covers of Slow River are right, and the Amazon page is right.
Anyway, as proof and for future reference, here is the lump of lucite I was presented in 1996. The object itself has deteriorated a little—lots of bubbling—which in some light makes it difficult to read, so I too a few different shots. Image descriptions below.3
ID: Four photos from different angles—one held, two upright on a table, one propped on a reading stand—of a literary award in the form of a book-shaped chunk of lucite, inside which is embedded a bronze medallion with the Greek letter Lambda centred inside palm leaves over an open book, and engraved with “Lambda Literary Awards.” Below that, printed in black, float the words “Lesbian Gay Science Fiction/Fantasy, 1995. Slow River, Nicola Griffith, DelRay”
So there you go. For the record, in terms of the Lambda Literary Foundation I’ve won the award six (6) times and been a finalist five (5) times, in a variety of categories, and in 2013 was presented with the Outstanding Mid-Career Novelist Prize.
- Any Wikipedia editors out there: feel free to jump in and fix this. The Powers That Be frown on authors editing info about themselves. ↩︎
- Yes, they’ve been notified. Like all nonprofits, things move slowly, and sometimes details slip through the cracks. EDIT TO ADD: Woo-hoo, fixed even before I posted this! ↩︎
- Yes, they misspelled Del Rey as DelRay. If I had a dollar for every time… ↩︎

“Now here is the biggest howling silence in the whole text of LLF. Nowhere would its readership learn that the Early Church, such a touchstone for LLF’s discussion, never associated marriage with any ceremony celebrated in church.”
