Oh, dear. The Holdstock Award? Does that mean the Derleth Award is retroactively a horror award this whole time? The universe conspires to confuse our database structure.
Yeah, it’s more than a little confusing all the way around. We’re still trying to work out how we’re going to represent the shift to 2 awards on the site. Probably just display the specific award name under each winner from here on out. I’ll look at it this week and see what we can do to make it not confusing.
