Extractions: A n n e M c C a f f r e y Her Books Other Information Other Web Sites I n 1999, Anne McCaffrey received the MAE Award. The committee cited her books Dragonflight, The Ship Who Sang, Dragonquest Dragonsong Dragonsinger White Dragon , and Dragondrums McCaffrey was born in Cambridge, Massachusetts on April 1, 1926. During the first year of her marriage, she began to write science fiction. In 1970, she and her three children moved to Ireland. McCaffrey says that she is opinionated, asocial, extroverted, and impossible. She has learned to be proud of being different. But she adds, It isnt easy! Its lonely until you realize that you have inner resources that those of the herd mentality cannot enjoy. Thats where the mind learns the freedom to think science-fictiony things, and where early lessons of tenacity, pure bullheadedness, can make a difference. Most people prefer to be accepted. I learned not to be. 2-10-99 MK

Extractions: Anne McCaffrey was born on April lst, l926, in Cambridge, Massachusetts, at 1:30 p.m., in the hour of the Sheep, year of the Fire Tiger, sun sign Aries with Taurus rising and Leo mid-heaven (which seems to suggest an early interest in the stars). Her parents were George Herbert McCaffrey, BA, MA PhD (Harvard), Colonel USA Army (retired), and Anne Dorothy McElroy McCaffrey, estate agent. She had two brothers: Hugh McCaffrey (deceased l988), Major US Army, and Kevin Richard McCaffrey, still living. Anne was educated at Stuart Hall, Staunton, Virginia, Montclair High School, Montclair, New Jersey, and graduated cum laude from Radcliffe College, majoring in Slavonic Languages and Literatures. Anne McCaffrey has tried to live up to her auspicious natal day. Her first novel was written in Latin class and might have brought her instant fame, as well as an A, if she had written it in that ancient language. Much chastened by teacher and father, she turned to the stage and became a character actress, appearing in the first successful summer music circus in Lambertsville, NJ. She studied voice for nine years and, during that time, became intensely interested in the stage direction of opera and operetta, ending that phase of her experience with the direction of the American premiere of Carl Orff's "Ludus de Nato Infante Mirificus" in which she also played a witch. Her working career included Liberty Music Shops and Helena Rubinstein (l947-1952). She married in 1950 and has three children: Alec Anthony, b. l952, Todd, b.l956, and Georgeanne, b.1959.

Extractions: Send this review to a friend Starting out in science fiction It's never easy to get that first, big break in the world of publishing, but aspiring science fiction writers at least have a good place to start. Writers of the Future, started in 1983 by science fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard, is an ongoing contest for the Arthur C. Clarke wannabes of the world. Three winners are selected each quarter by panels of experienced science fiction writers, such as Anne McCaffrey, Frederick Pohl and Tim Powers. The winners receive cash prizes ($1,000 for first place each quarter), but more importantly for some, they also get to see their stories in print. The winning entries are published in an annual anthology. The most recent anthology, Writers of the Future, Volume XVI offers an excellent chance to sample the imaginative, if sometimes unpolished, work of the up-and-coming SF crowd. Brief author bios reveal that the contestants work in all sorts of occupations (software, medicine, public relations, even one stand-up comedian) while dreaming of careers as science fiction writers. Perhaps they can take heart from the record of previous winners. Organizers report that of the 200 winners selected since the contest began, 130 have gone on to become professional writers.

The only ones I have been able to recognize so far is "Pegasus in Flight," there is a character named John Greene, who is refered to a JG a couple of times. The other one I have identified is pretty good. In "The Renegades of Pern" there is a character named Jayge. This is, of course, a way to spell out JG.
