So we’re gonna do this just like we did this last year, and I’m mostly rewriting last year’s post word-for-word.
This time of the year is, among other things, nomination season for the Hugo Awards, and general tradition in SF/F circles is for people to post the list of eligible things they’ve been involved with. For me, this year the only thing that I have that’s eligible is actually this blog in the fan writer category.
Meanwhile, although tomorrow is the deadline for acquiring a World Con membership in order to nominate and vote this year, I still have a month to read a ton of stuff and figure out what I’m going to nominate, so please link me to you eligible titles (or recommended titles from others) so I can get started on that process.
Other than your awesome, I’m particularly interested in your various short-form recs, as I don’t read enough short stories in general, and it’s a pretty neat genre that highlights the beauty of good structure. We do not give short stories enough love.
So, if you have stuff, please post in comments with links; meanwhile, please go browse the comments which will hopefully be flowing in shortly and check out anything that so moves you.
Hi. I wrote an essay for ‘Chicks Unravel Time’, the followup to ‘Chicks Dig Timelords’. ‘Tis a pretty good book, if I say so myself, and more focussed than the first one, as each contributor was given a season of Doctor Who to write about. Can’t give you a link as such, but the book is available on Amazon.
