Art Scott is presented with the Don Sandstrom Memorial Award for Lifetime Achievement in Mystery Fandom
Many awards were handed out last night at Bouchercon. Congratulations to all the winners, and an especially loud “Hooray!” to Art Scott for receiving the Don Sandstrom Memorial Award for Lifetime Achievement in Mystery Fandom. Way to go, Art.
And another one for the DAPA-Em trophy case…

The biggest challenge was getting Art to come to the ceremony without giving the game away, Rick, and George Kelley was in charge of that aspect. He told him that Beth Fedyn was getting the award and it took Art a while to remember that Beth already had one!
I think it’s great. Good job, getting him there. I take it he was surprised. Seems like DAPA has sure garnered a lot of awards over the years!
