Announcing the 2024 Otherwise Award winners!

The Otherwise Award is pleased to announce four winners for the 2024 Award:

The Otherwise Award (formerly known as the Tiptree Award) honors stories that expose the many ways we experience gender in this world and others. Per our award process update last year, we now honor a short list of works each year with the Otherwise Award, rather than just one or two.

The jury is also pleased to share a Long List of five works:

Each year, a jury selects Otherwise Award winners and a list of additional notable works that celebrate science fiction, fantasy, and other forms of speculative narrative that expand and explore our understanding of gender. The jury is encouraged to take an expansive view of “science fiction and fantasy” and to seek out works that have a broad, intersectional, trans-inclusive understanding of gender in the context of race, class, nationality, and disability.

The 2024 jury members were Eugene Fischer (chair), Avery Dame-Griff, E. Ornelas, Elsa Sjunneson, Liz Haas, and Sophia Babai. We thank each of them for their many dozens of hours of service!

The authors of the winning works will each receive $200 in prize money, and a medal commemorating their Award. We will also celebrate and discuss the works at WisCon 2025, during the Sunday night gala (including speeches by the authors as well as the singing of a celebratory filk), and in a panel during the convention. WisCon 2025 (also known as WisCONline) will be online from May 23 through 26; registration is pay-what-you-wish.

Below, we offer jurors’ thoughts on why they chose this year’s Award winners and Long List.

About the Winners

In Universes by Emet North

In Universes is an exquisitely crafted novel that looks at the possible lives of its main character across many different realities, starting out largely realistic and becoming more speculative with each passing chapter. The book uses this conceit to explore personal gender and sexual identity, generational trauma, disability, motherhood, varied kinds of physical embodiment and—most notably—personal fallibility, hypocrisy, and repentance.

That process of self discovery, of learning oneself and constructing one’s identity, can be messy and uncertain in ways that extend beyond the strictly personal. People figuring themselves out can easily hurt other people, whether through selfishness and cowardice, or simply via the unavoidable pain of dashed expectation. While personal gender exploration, discovery, and transformation are legitimate, the potential for making mistakes and harming others in the process is very real, and the pain felt by those who are hurt is also legitimate. So, if we are going to celebrate and defend gender exploration, we owe it to ourselves and those we care for to ask: how do I address cases where, in doing something that feels necessary for me, I hurt somebody else? How do I responsibly remain in community with and care for those I have injured or wronged?

These are questions that In Universes addresses directly. It’s a story of many versions of a person who struggles with self-loathing, egocentrism, and internalized homophobia, and how they learn to see and atone for selfish harms caused to others. As the main character is Jewish, it’s reasonable to call this a novel about t’shuva—the active, restorative process of repentance. Their thoughtfully-explored, reality-bending path to finally learning that “being a good person isn’t something you do alone” is a valuable contribution to the literature of SFnal gender exploration.

—Eugene Fischer

“Kiss of Life” by P.C. Verrone

In “Kiss of Life,” author P.C. Verrone cleverly adapts common fantasy tropes in the service of an exacting deconstruction of colonialism and gender. Our unnamed narrator, born with a weak heart, is initially traded as a commodity until she is taken in by the Angels, otherworldly beings who need human sacrifices to build their Great Works. The narrator comes to serve as a translator for the Angels, transforming her into their mouthpiece. Yet watching the sacrifice of her father transforms her relationship with the Angels forever. As “Kiss of Life” illustrates, oppression comes not only through the imposition of “traditional” patriarchal gender norms but also the colonizers’ supposedly progressive “empowerment.” In both cases, misogyny dictates women and girls are valuable primarily as disposable tools to further others’ ends.

Instead of telling this point outright, the story is recounted to an unknown but presumably young audience, beautifully and distinctively capturing the sense of a maternal figure telling a story. This storytelling frame allows the reader to come to this realization alongside the protagonist, who recounts this story to her presumably young audience. Moreover, this story-within-a-story framing gives the work’s title, “Kiss of Life,” a dual meaning as well. Often alongside the Angels comes the “Kiss of Death,” catastrophic events where whole cities are wiped from the Earth. Whereas this Kiss eliminates all records of these people, the narrator’s story is a Kiss of Life for both her audience and the reader, a generational cultural memory which ensures their sacrifices would never be forgotten.

—Avery Dame-Griff

Rakesfall by Vajra Chandrasekera

Rakesfall is a bizarre, brilliant, relentlessly challenging book. The storytelling and craft are stunning, and every single sentence feels completely intentional, even when you have absolutely no idea what’s going on. Which is most of the time.

The story centers on two characters, one most often a woman and one most often a man, who reincarnate across different worlds and lifetimes. The handling of gender, like everything else in the story, is deliciously, wonderfully, infuriatingly complex. Rakesfall explores gender from a thousand angles, from painfully familiar gender-stereotypical dynamics like “battered wife defends abusive husband at the expense of the son who’s trying to protect her” to wonderfully bizarre scenarios like two spirits incarnating into the same body, experiencing comfort and dysphoria at once.

Rakesfall is gleefully confusing and frequently uncomfortable, and it also shines a light on how we run from confusion and discomfort. The artificial identities, borders, and hierarchies we create in a quest for safety and power. The way we turn away from truths that are uncomfortable, or even straight-up murder people for telling truths that are uncomfortable. The way we leave behind the real world and create a new world that looks how we think the world SHOULD look, smells how we think the world SHOULD smell. The story deliberately, carefully, skillfully shepherds you through the experience of confusion in order to say “look, see, you can be confused and you will still survive, you can be confused and you will still laugh and cry and live and die and have adventures and eat the rich, you can be confused and the world will still go on and on and on, and meanwhile all these fake artifacts and identities you created to avoid confusion will disappear anyway.” If that isn’t expansive, I don’t know what is.

—Sophia Babai

Walking Practice by Dolki Min, translated by Victoria Caudle

Walking Practice uses its extraterrestrial perspective to highlight elements of gender performance that often pass notice as natural or normal. The novel centers on a shapeshifting alien who has crash-landed in Seoul and survives by subsisting on humans that they meet through dating apps. While “alien who exists outside the gender binary” is a common trope, the main character’s commentary defamiliarizes social expectations of gender in a way that sets it apart from the other iterations I have encountered. The title comes, in part, from the main character’s observations of the ways that men and women are expected to walk and move as they attempt to blend in. The narrator’s analysis, in its efforts to understand and mimic these normative movements, highlights how these are not inherent: they are enforced by society telling you that you have to move in a particular way to be seen as “acceptable” in your gender role. The alien’s efforts to conform to these gender expectations while struggling to hold together its human shape also gesture toward the intersection of gender-based oppression and ableism. The main character’s narration is profoundly funny; there’s a perverse enjoyment that comes from reading the narrator’s description of a terrible date that ends with devouring their hookup partner. When looking for speculative fiction that explores and expands ideas of gender, I really hoped to find works that get weird with it, and Walking Practice undeniably hit the mark for me.

About the Long List

In addition to selecting the winners, each year’s jury chooses an Otherwise Award Long List of notable works.

“The Flame in You” by L. Nabang

“The Flame in You” tells the story of Everett and Lucien, brothers in a Cameroonian immigrant family, throughout their childhood and teen years. Compared to Everett, Lucien fails to meet both Everett’s and his father’s rules, choosing instead to kindle his own flame. In “Flame,” Nabang explores how patriarchal expectations and zero-sum thinking strangle relationships between men. In her thoughtful and tender prose, Nabang beautifully illustrates the generational trauma of such abuse, and the legacy of loss it leaves behind.

—Avery Dame-Griff

Sacrificial Animals by Kailee Pedersen

Sacrificial Animals is a story about alienation and environmental harm, about the relentless brutality of rural white masculinity, about prejudice and patriarchy ripping families apart. It’s also about shapeshifting fox spirits who tear off men’s heads. What else do you want from a book?

The plot follows the Morrow family, a deeply repressed family of white men living in rural Nebraska, and their destruction at the hands of a fox spirit whose babies they killed. It’s impossible not to compare to Stephen Graham Jones’s The Only Good Indians, another story of human men committing hideous violence against female animals and their young, and being brutally punished for it. What sets the story apart is its exploration of Orientalism and the particular viciousness of white American men toward themselves, their children, and the more-than-human world.

Pedersen’s writing is superb and haunting. Vicious violence against children and animals is described in a dull, one-note, almost perfunctory manner, while a white man’s attraction to a Chinese woman is described with florid terror.

—Sophia Babai

The Sapling Cage by Margaret Killjoy

The Sapling Cage centers on a young woman named Lorel who joins a coven of witches, hiding that she is transgender. Without giving too much away, what makes this story distinct in its gender exploration is how Lorel grapples with her gender identity in a world where magic exists. For Lorel, part of her journey is figuring out what she needs to feel safe and accepted (by herself and others) in her identity, and how or to what extent she needs magic to gain this sense of self-acceptance. The book also examines power, autonomy, community, and justice more broadly through Lorel’s evolving relationships with the coven members and the people she meets in her travels.

—Liz Haas

“Scarlett” by Everdeen Mason

In “Scarlett,” Everdeen Mason offers a new telling of the classic Pygmalion and Galatea narrative to explore the associations between femininity, service, and ownership, as well as themes of selfhood and consent. In it, protagonist Jon strives to create the “perfect” AI Scarlett, allowing her to learn from observing his life. A story for the current moment, Mason’s sharply observed characterizations speak to how modern technological visions are driven by a desire to instantiate existing gender structures. As Scarlett’s knowledge of Jon and the world grows, her vision of her “perfect” self diverges from Jon’s vision. In the process, Jon’s frustration at Scarlett’s failure to achieve “correct” femininity speaks so vividly to the performative aspects of gender, and the story’s haunting ending highlights how the obsessive pursuit of perfection ultimately smothers all it touches.

—Avery Dame-Griff

Vanessa 5000 by Courtney Pauroso

Vanessa 5000 is a brilliant achievement in physical comedy. Courtney Pauroso draws from clowning tradition to create the character of a sex robot being presented at a tech convention. Through this character, Vanessa 5000 comments on the use of tech and mass data collection to enforce gender roles. Vanessa is just a little bit off, evocative of what a neural network might present when fed the entirety of the internet and trained on what an average tech bro perceives as sexy. Pauroso demonstrates remarkable precision in her portrayal of this character, which makes it all the more delightful when the tech presentation goes off the rails in the latter half of the show.

—Liz Haas

Assorted news and updates

Things are proceeding apace with the awards for works published in 2024. Jury members have been reading and considering recommended works, and we’re expecting that they’ll make their decisions within the next couple of months.

Our recommendation form is now open for works published in 2025. Let us know about the sf works you’re appreciating that explore or expand our understanding of gender! (Works can be books, stories, music, video, fanfic, social media posts, or any other form of speculative fiction.)

We’re bidding a fond farewell to a longtime dedicated member of the Motherboard: Gretchen Treu has volunteered as a member of the Motherboard for a decade, especially focusing on supporting the book acquisition process for the Award jury. They will continue to offer advice to the Award in other capacities. Thanks, Gretchen, for your years of service and support of the Award; we’ll miss you on the Motherboard!

WisCon will be online this year, May 23-26. We will almost certainly hold a few Otherwise events during the con, but we haven’t worked out details yet; more to come, probably next month. (More about this year’s convention at WisCon’s virtual town hall on Wednesday, February 19th!)

This year we completed an update to our bylaws to bring them into the 21st century; no longer does notice of board meetings need to be delivered via first-class postal mail, in person, or by “telephone or telegraph.”

A note to past honorees and volunteers: if you have changed the name that you go by, we want to honor that. If we mention your old name on our website and you’d prefer that we update it, or add a note mentioning your new name (example), please contact us so we can change the record appropriately.

Also: Given the current political atmosphere (in the United States as well as elsewhere), there is increased potential threat to marginalized people, possibly including stalking and harassment, as well as concerns about persecution by governments. In response, we’re examining and improving our data security and retention processes. And we recognize that, in response, some past Otherwise honorees or volunteers may be reducing how much information about them is available publicly on the web. If our website includes information about you that you would like for us to remove entirely or redact, please contact us so we can figure out how to make that change appropriately.

Announcing the 2024 Otherwise Fellowship recipients!

The Otherwise Motherboard is pleased to announce the selection of two new Otherwise Fellows: author Eugen Bacon and illustrator and comic artist Mars Lauderbaugh.

Eugen Bacon is a writer of black speculative fiction that confronts matters of gender inequality, climate action, social (in)justice, motherhood, family, poverty, domestic violence, sexuality, and racial inequality. Bacon’s fiction playfully defamiliarizes how we understand humanity, gender, and the everyday, by freely imagining alternative worlds and possibilities, with stories that are truly speculative and invite us to see our own world with new eyes. The committee found Bacon’s prose lively and evocative. This fellowship will support her new collection of short stories, Black Dingo, where the literary strange unravels in genre bending Afro-irreal tales of longing and belonging, unlimited futures, queerness and sexuality, a collision of worlds and everything in between, in hues of shadow and light. Upon learning of being awarded an Otherwise Fellowship, Eugen wrote, “I am deeply moved to find myself in this stimulating space of engaging with difference—our world as we know it needs it now more than ever. It’s my hope that readers and publishers will consciously choose to be part of rewarding quality in enabling literature that truly makes a worthy contribution in the characters and themes, such as tradition, belonging, gender, climate action, the ‘other’, betwixt, unlimited futures… it spotlights.”

Mars Lauderbaugh is an artist whose work explores the rich everyday experiences of gender’s expansiveness. In a time where trans and nonbinary kids’ and teens’ rights are under threat across the world, Lauderbaugh’s dynamic and wonderfully illustrated graphic novel projects and book cover art—often featuring genderqueer characters on exciting and fantastical journeys—are rays of hope for the young readers of today and tomorrow. The committee was amazed by Lauderbaugh’s beautiful, committed work. This fellowship will support an upgrade of their working materials so they might continue with their current project, Brighter Stars, which they describe as something they would “want to share with the me of ten years ago, when I was alone and afraid of who I was, frustrated with not fitting into trans space.” Upon learning of being awarded an Otherwise Fellowship, Mars wrote, “This is truly a bright point in the chaos of the past few months.”

In addition to choosing two Fellows, the fellowship committee named poet Erica Rivera and author Isaac Kozukhin as honorable mentions. Rivera’s experimental poetry, grappling with autofabulation, technocritique, disability, and the trans-Latinx experience, is unflinching and powerfully written. Kozukhin’s evocative, deftly-written novel-in-progress is a promising exploration of gender fluidity and intersex identity in speculative fiction.

The Otherwise Award celebrates works of speculative fiction that imagine new futures by exploring and expanding our understanding of gender roles. Through the Fellowship program, the Otherwise Motherboard also encourages those who are striving to complete works, to imagine futures that might have been unimaginable when the Otherwise Award began. The Fellowship program seeks out new voices in the field, particularly from communities that have been historically underrepresented in science fiction and fantasy and by those who work in media other than traditional fiction.

Each Fellow will receive $500. The work produced as a result of this support will be recognized and promoted by the Otherwise Award. Over time, the Fellowship program will create a network of Fellows who can build connections, provide mutual support, and find opportunities for collaboration.

The members of the 2024 selection committee for the Otherwise Fellowships were former Fellows Cat Aquino, Shreya Ila Anasuya, and committee chair (and Motherboard member) Jed Samer. For more on the work of the latest Otherwise Fellows (and on the work of past Fellows), visit the Otherwise Award website.

New directions for the Otherwise Award

Hi, everyone! The Otherwise Award has been on a pause lately; during that pause, we on the motherboard have been discussing ways to update the award, improving various things about the way that it works while staying connected to the roots and tradition of the award.

Short version of this message: We’re now returning from the pause with a new streamlined process, and we’re moving forward with the award for work published in 2024. Send us your recommendations!

(The 2022 and 2023 awards are still on hold.)

For more details, read on.

Our main goal

We will continue in the tradition of the award, honoring and promoting recent works that explore and expand our ideas of gender.

But we’re improving how we do that, by bringing the award even more into line with our values. For example, we’re making the process more sustainable and more equitable, and going even further in our traditional approach of honoring multiple works.

What isn’t changing

  • We’ll still rely on recommendations from the public.
  • We’ll still celebrate multiple works, not just one or two each year.
  • We’ll still have our Fellowship program.

What is changing

  • We’re changing our focus somewhat. In particular, we plan to:
    • Focus less on honoring one specific work, and more on curating a short list of works.
    • Focus less on presenting an award, and more on having a conversation around recent works.
    • Focus less on having a celebration at one or two conventions, and more on creating accessible ways for the public to engage with the jury’s thoughts.
  • We’re reducing the amount of unpaid labor and burnout involved. We plan to:
    • Reduce the amount of work jury members have to do.
    • Spread out required work among more people.
    • Pay more people for doing infrastructure/support work, such as an administrative coordinator to support the jury.

What you’ll get each year

Under the new approach, each year’s jury will create the following:

  • An honor list of about three to six works, with a description of why the jurors chose each one. (That is, the jury won’t be selecting only one winner.)
  • Optionally, a “long list” of additional works that the jurors want to call attention to.
  • A discussion, among the jurors, of the works on the honor list, any trends or general ideas they noticed, and related topics. This usually takes the form of an online video call, recorded for you to watch.
  • A briefer synthesis/distillation of that discussion, such as a text summary, that we publish for the world to read and reference.

The 2024 awards

We’ve started the process for honoring works published in 2024. In particular:

  • We have a jury, chaired by Eugene Fischer, who was a winner of the 2015 award.
  • We have a paid coordinator, who’s working with Eugene to create the first-stage list.
  • We’ve received some recommendations for works published in 2024.

Speaking of which, please recommend more works published in 2024! The form will be open until mid-November, but the sooner you submit recommendations, the better.

We expect to announce the 2024 honor list in late March 2025, and to share a discussion video and a text summary in April or May 2025.

One more thing

A note in passing that we’ve changed our mailing-list platform, as another way of streamlining our process and work—for example, you can now subscribe and unsubscribe yourself, instead of waiting for us to do that for you.

We sent out this blog post as an email. If you didn’t receive that, then you’re probably not on our mailing list. If you want to be on our mailing list, enter your email address in our subscription form.

That’s all for now

Thanks as always for your support. We hope you’ll be as happy as we are with the changes we’re making, and we hope you’ll continue to engage with the award by reading and recommending works, watching the jury presentation next year, and spreading the word about what we’re doing.

Our pause and interim plans

As has been the case for many volunteer-run organizations, the Otherwise Award has struggled since the start of the pandemic in 2020. Our (volunteer) board and other volunteers have had to juggle many more issues than previously around health, paid work, and caretaking concerns than previously, which has resulted in our falling behind on the administration and maintenance of the Award. We’re sorry that we didn’t communicate about this earlier—that made it hard for readers, authors, and publishers to know what to expect.

Our Motherboard met recently to discuss how to move forward. We remain dedicated to our mission: to celebrate science fiction, fantasy, and other forms of speculative narrative that expand and explore our understanding of gender . But we’re discussing how, as an organization, to continue to pursue that mission in a sustainable way, given our limited resources.

Here are the decisions we’ve made so far.

Most of our programs are paused. This is us acknowledging what’s already been happening. We were later than usual at deliberating and announcing the Awards for work published in 2020 and in 2021, and did not run a Fellowships process in 2021 or 2023. We have not yet convened a jury to consider works published in 2022, 2023, or 2024.

We intend to run the Fellowships this year. We will open applications in several months—August at the earliest, October at the latest.

We may honor 2022 and 2023 work in a different way. We’re exploring various approaches to celebrating work from those years. That celebration may end up taking a very different form than usual.

We’re considering alternative approaches to the Award in the future. It could be that we’ll convene a jury soon to read 2024 work and deliberate towards an Award, but if we do, we may change our practices to reduce the workload on individual jury members and to make our procurement system for recommended works less laborious. Also, we currently rely on volunteer work for almost all of the organization’s labor (exceptions being technological work on our website, and art commissioned to give to Award winners); we may try to find ways to focus more on paid labor.

We’ll be at Readercon. We usually honor the most recent Award winner at WisCon, but this year we have no new award winner, and WisCon is taking a break. So we will instead hold some Otherwise-related events at Readercon (July 11-14, 2024, near Boston, Massachusetts). Specifics to be determined. Edited on July 10 to delete this item; it turns out that, due to illness, we’re unable to have a presence at Readercon.

We’ll say more soon. Within the next few months, we’ll have further announcements about our activities, and will announce them on this blog, on our mailing list, and on social media.

Thank you for your support for the Award.

-Sumana Harihareswara, Motherboard chair
