The Jason Sanford Nomination Gateway
Remember that fellow we had on the show for episode fourteen? Well, he’s been kind enough to add us to his list of nominations for the Hugo, Nebula, and Locus awards. I have no idea if we’re eligible for every award, but it’s really awesome to be considered by someone other than ourselves (you know, because saying “yeah, we so deserve an award” is a tad egotistical, don’t you think?). But this post isn’t just about us. It’s also about the stuff he has on his list, which includes numerous novels, short stories, and so on. You should check it out and let him know what you think of his selections. P.S.: We’re very please to see GUD, Interzone, and works by Ted Chiang, Lavie Tidhar, Hannu Rajaniemi, Catherynne Valente, N. K. Jemisin, Nnedi Okorafor, and others on Sanford’s list. Best of luck to them when the awards come rolling in! Hopefully Andy Cox will win best editor this year!
