¡Hugos!

8 o'clock, March 22, 2004

Nearly slipped my mind, and I'll bet it slipped yours, too: Hugo nominations are due — like, must-arrive-by “due” — Thursday. I’ve got this massive Wille zur Macht deficiency that keeps me from nominating my own stuff, but that doesn’t have to stop you.

Plus, it’s the last year of Best Professional Editor eligibility for Mary Anne Mohanraj, at least in her capacity as Editor-in-Chief of Strange Horizons; all kinds of cool people are eligible for the Campbell (though not me, not yet); and, oh, yeah, a bunch of other good stuff was published last year.

(Not to mention Gollum’s MTV acceptance speech. Best Dramatic Presentation, Short Form, or I don’t know what any of those words mean.)

So if you’re eligible — and I know a bunch of you are, ’cause six or seven months ago I was drinking with you in Toronto — then surf, don’t walk, over to the Noreascon web site and get nominatin’.

Okay, you know that massive Wille zur Macht deficiency that you've got? Well, get over it immediately.

Feel free to nominate your own stuff for the Hugos, always. Everyone else does, because that's pretty much how Hugos work. I certainly do, and proudly. :-) So, stand up for your own work, chin up, and nominate!

I nominated Fetch some months ago.

Thanks, Scott!

Vera, it's too late. If one of my stories misses the ballot by one vote, I guess I'll know who to blame.
