Information About

Hugo Award For Best Semiprozine




This Hugo Award is given to Science Fiction / Fantasy / Horror magazines which live in a nebulous area between the non-paying amateur fanzines, and the high-paying professional magazines. Defining exactly what a "semi-professional" magazine is thus takes considerable verbiage.

To this end, the Constitution of the World Science Fiction Society defines a Semiprozine as follows:

3.3.10: Best Semiprozine. Any generally available non-professional publication devoted to science fiction or fantasy which by the close of the previous calendar year has published four (4) or more issues, at least one (1) of which appeared in the previous calendar year, and which in the previous calendar year met at least two (2) of the following criteria:

(1) had an average press run of at least one thousand (1000) copies per issue,

(2) paid its contributors and/or staff in other than copies of the publication,

(3) provided at least half the income of any one person,

(4) had at least fifteen percent (15%) of its total space occupied by advertising,

(5) announced itself to be a semiprozine.

The Semiprozine Hugo was created after Locus won the Best Fanzine Hugo for several years running. Awards given in one year are for work done during the previous year. Winners are listed first, with other nominees listed below.
