The John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer (first awarded in 1973) is an American award given annually to the best new writer whose first professional work of science fiction or fantasy was show more published within the two previous calendar years. The prize is named in honor of science fiction editor and writer John W. Campbell, whose science fiction writing and role as editor of Analog Science Fiction and Fact made him one of the most influential editors in the early history of science fiction.[2] The award is sponsored by Dell Magazines, which publishes Analog. The nomination and selection process is administered by the World Science Fiction Society (WSFS) represented by the current Worldcon committee, and the award is presented at the Hugo Award ceremony at the Worldcon, although it is not itself a Hugo Award

in 2019, Dell Publications changed the name of the award to the Astounding Award for Best New Writer.

Not the same as the John W Campbell Memorial Award, an annual award for novels.
