Hugo Nominations

[kevin_standlee]

I submitted my Hugo Awards nominations today. As Cheryl Morgan pointed out here, the deadline for nominating is next Friday. Don't wait until the last minute; fill out your ballot sooner rather than later. If you need some suggestions, you can find a bunch of them on the Emerald City Hugo Recommendations Page

Thanks to cherylmorgan and I being able to talk for free over Skype (once I got my headset working; the sound card had stopped recognizing the microphone), we remembered that Ion Trails (you can download it at that link), the "in-flight magazine" of the WSFS Armadillo is eligible in Related Book. Funny thing is that I knew that at the time, and forgot about it until just today, probably because I keep thinking of the category under its older name "Best Non-Fiction Book."

Even if you don't nominate anything with which I'm involved -- even if you go out of your way to nominate other works because you think I'm being crass for even pointing out the works' eligibility -- if you can nominate, then please do so. The more people nominate, the broader base we get for the awards and, in my opinion, the better they will be.

*sniff* Alas, I don't think the CD is eligible in any category.

Kevin, perhaps you can help me out. I don't know what happened to my reciepts in my move, so I don't know my member number. My name appears on teh list of those with memberships, but every request to change my address has gone unanswered and I've never recieved a single mailing. I have followed all the instructions on th LACon web site, and I do get mail here...

Thanks.

I've recently rediscoverd a fair number of Ion Trails under my bed. (in boxes)if anybody wants copies let me know and I'll ship them out.
