The Corflu Fifty declares Curt Phillips a winner

[randy_byers]

Rich Coad has announced that Curt Phillips is the winner of the Corflu Fifty fan fund this year and will be attending Corflu Zed in Seattle. Curt is a longtime fan from Abingdon, Virginia. He has pubbed his ish, written for lots of fanzines, and OE'd the apas Myriad and PEAPS. He runs the PulpMags and Southern Fandom Classic Yahoo!Groups, and he's an active participant in other groups as well and an all around force for good in fandom. He doesn't make it to many conventions on the West Coast, so this will be a great chance for a lot of us to finally meet him.

The Corflu Fifty is a group of fans who have agreed to donate $25 each year to send a person chosen by consensus within the group to that year's Corflu. Last year the fund supported Steve and Elaine Stiles' trip to Corflu Silver in Las Vegas. There are currently 25 people in the group, but as the name implies, we'd like to get it up to 50. If you're interested in joining, please contact Rich Coad at richcoad at comcast dot net.

But do you think he's shorter in real life than he is in fanzines?

Since I've never met Curt, difficult to say.

Well, you should come to Corflu and find out.

In time, who can tell? I'll need a job first.
