The [[World Fantasy Award]]s are given each year by the [[World Fantasy Convention]] for the best [[fantasy literature|fantasy fiction]] published in English during the previous calendar year. The awards have been described by book critics such as ''[[The Guardian]]'' as a "prestigious fantasy prize",<ref name="AwardBust"/> and one of the three most prestigious [[speculative fiction]] awards, along with the [[Hugo Award|Hugo]] and [[Nebula Award]]s (which cover both fantasy and [[science fiction]]).<ref name="STARquote"/><ref name="CHICquote"/> The '''World Fantasy Award—Short Fiction''' is given each year for fantasy [[short story|short stories]] published in English. A work of fiction is defined by the organization as short fiction if it is 10,000 words or less in length; awards are also given out for longer pieces in the [[World Fantasy Award—Novel|Novel]] and [[World Fantasy Award—Novella|Novella]] categories. The Short Fiction category has been awarded annually since 1975, though before 1982—when the category was instated—it was named "Best Short Fiction" and covered works of up to 40,000 words.<ref name="Locusrules"/> It was then renamed "Best Short Story" until 2016, when it was renamed to the "Short Fiction" category.<ref name="Loc15"/><ref name="Loc16"/>

World Fantasy Award nominees and winners are decided by attendees and judges at the annual World Fantasy Convention. A ballot is posted in June for attendees of the current and previous two conferences to determine two of the finalists, and a panel of five judges adds three or more nominees before voting on the overall winner.<ref name="Locusrules"/><ref name="WFArules"/> The panel of judges is typically made up of fantasy authors<ref name="TORstats"/> and is chosen each year by the World Fantasy Awards Administration, which has the power to break ties.<ref name="Locusrules"/> The final results are presented at the World Fantasy Convention at the end of October.<ref name="WFArules"/> Winners were presented with a statue in the form of a bust of [[H.&nbsp;P.&nbsp;Lovecraft]] through the 2015 awards; more recent winners receive a statuette of a tree.<ref name="AwardBust2"/>

During the 50 nomination years, 184 authors have had works nominated; 51 of them have won, including ties and co-authors. Only five authors have won more than once: [[Ramsey Campbell]] and [[James Blaylock]] with two wins out of four nominations each, [[Stephen King]] won two out of three, and [[Tanith Lee]] and [[Fred Chappell]] won both times they were nominated. Of authors who have won at least once, [[Jeffrey Ford]] and [[Kelly Link]] have the most nominations at five, followed by [[Dennis Etchison]] and [[Avram Davidson]], who along with Campbell and Blaylock received four nominations. [[Charles de Lint]] has the most nominations without winning at five; he is followed by [[Michael Swanwick]], who has had four nominations without winning.

==Winners and nominees==

Entries with a yellow background and an asterisk (*) next to the writer's name have won the award; the other entries are the other nominees on the shortlist.
