The Winners of the 2015 Sidewise Awards Are...

The 20th Anniversary of the Sidewise Awards for Alternate History has been celebrated with the announcement of the 2015 long and short form winners. And they are...

Long Form:  Julie Mayhew's The Big Lie

Short Form: Bill Crider's "It Doesn't Matter Anymore"

From what Steven Silver told me, the results were very close, with The Big Lie narrowly beating Joe Steele and "It Doesn't Matter Anymore" narrowly beating "Elizabethtown". All of those were great stories and I highly recommend you check them all out.

Congrats to this year's winners and I hope everyone is having fun at WorldCon.
