Independent British online magazine Holdfast has beaten heavyweight competition from Interzone and Lightspeed to win the British Fantasy Award for best magazine.
‘For us as editors it’s a truly unprecedented, amazing and lovely thing,’ said Laurel Sills, who co-edits Holdfast with Lucy Smee. ‘We were genuinely not expecting to win – we were up against some really big and established magazines and thought it was amazing just to be shortlisted with them. Anyone who was at the ceremony will vouch for how amazed we were.’
