Bad luck in the Best Fan Writing category, though Alan is a worthy winner. I have to admit to not having heard of the novel. I must go looking for it.

Alan certainly is a worthy winner - that's why I nominated him. I haven't read The Assassin of Gleam yet, but I guess I will have to now (I have read parts of the others). If your local shop does not carry it, you can Order it directly from Hazard press (http://www.hazardonline.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=246&PHPSESSID=32ee0e6a7595e60bb91f77a54db5b19f)
