| Biographical/Administrative Information: | Data Dump was a handwritten fanzine subtitled 'A Newsletter of SF Poetry' (226 issues November 1991-November 2016,). It began as a draft bibliography of UK sf and fanzine verse but developed into a monthly Newszine covering all aspects of sf and fantasy poetry worldwide, including incidental verse by the author found in stories and novels. The Data Dump Award, launched in 2006, was an annual award given by Steve Sneyd to the best (science fiction and similar) genre poems published in the UK in the previous calendar year. |
