"San Diego Lightfoot Sue" is a 1975 fantasy short story by American writer Tom Reamy. It was first published in The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction. Plot summaryIn the early 1960s, a naive teenager from Kansas moves to Los Angeles, where he falls in love with a prostitute. Reception"San Diego Lightfoot Sue" won the 1975 Nebula Award for Best Novelette,[1] and was a finalist for the 1976 Hugo Award for Best Novelette.[2] Publishers Weekly called it "smooth".[3] The story has been cited as an example of the idea that magic can be dangerous to the wielder if incorrectly performed (when the prostitute casts a spell to rejuvenate herself so that the teenager can see what she looked like when she was his age, she is "consumed by green fire"),[4] and as evidence that Reamy was, if not gay himself, then "remarkably familiar with the gay idiom of the time".[5] References1. ^[https://nebulas.sfwa.org/nominated-work/san-diego-lightfoot-sue/ San Diego Lightfoot Sue], at Science Fiction Writers of America; retrieved June 4, 2018 2. ^1976 Hugo Awards, at TheHugoAwards.org; retrieved June 4, 2018 3. ^[https://books.google.ca/books?id=jopFAQAAIAAJ&dq=%22carter+scholz%22+%22ninth+symphony%22&focus=searchwithinvolume&q=%22san+diego+lightfoot+sue%22 Publishers Weekly] volume 210; 1976 4. ^[https://books.google.ca/books?id=H7b-HkwHC14C&pg=PA214&lpg=PA214&dq=%22lightfoot+sue%22+magic&source=bl&ots=QLwSlyPsY0&sig=ErpjO4lB2-ip892INc9FHz7VZ7Y&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjJjdXykLrbAhVOM6wKHQORDQwQ6AEINDAC#v=onepage&q=%22lightfoot%20sue%22%20magic&f=false The Writer's Digest Guide to Science Fiction & Fantasy], edited by Orson Scott Card; chapter 3, 'Magic', by Allan Maurer and Renee Wright; published 2010 by Writer's Digest Books 5. ^[https://books.google.ca/books?id=7ZRBIT3Yl5IC&pg=PA266&lpg=PA266&dq=%22san+diego+lightfoot+sue%22&source=bl&ots=11syoWnfeu&sig=Re1pwUsXFbI0CXR_gQsK14Vzo5w&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjSlcPbjbrbAhUFR6wKHTy1AtgQ6AEIxQIwOQ#v=onepage&q=%22san%20diego%20lightfoot%20sue%22&f=false Queer Universes: Sexualities in Science Fiction], by Wendy Gay Pearson, Veronica Hollinger, and Joan Gordon; published 2010 by Liverpool University Press External links
