She has edited a number of their anthologies under the name T.K.F. Weisskopf, and has won the Phoenix Award in 1994 for excellence in science fiction, the Rebel Award in 2000 for lifetime achievement is Southern Science Fiction Fandom, and in 1994 she was also awarded the tongue-in-cheek Rubble Award, given out annually to a fan or pro who has "done something humorously ignominious".[2]
