From the post:
Letters from Anne McCaffrey – “I do like my LOCUS.”
Acclaimed author and SFWA Grandmaster Anne McCaffrey was a long-time friend of Locus. Her letters were full of news about books, family, dragons, and other projects.
McCaffrey was the first woman to win both the Hugo and the Nebula Awards (in 1968 and ’69, respectively) and was inducted into the SF Hall of Fame in 2006.
