Best Related Work
A Detailed Explanation (? because, well, it's a related work, dude doesn't want to be nominated for Fan Writer, and I think this is an excellent exploration of the aesthetic and ideology of speculative fiction as a whole)

Best Pro Artist
... yeah okay I'm super fond of Stephanie Pui-Mun Law's stuff

Short fiction (sort out later)
The Shape of My Name, Nino Cipri (lovely if heartbreaking worldbuilding, time travel, decisions and family and how you make them; recced me by Julia)

I read the beginning and the end of this long detailed essay and I have to say, that is one righteous dude.

[shanaqui]

Yeah, I feel the same about this one.

[sylvaine]

Yes! I was just talking with seyren about how we hope/half-expect that essay to end up on the short-list next year.

[seyren]

I totally called it, sylvie *g*

I'm thinking of nominating this, because it articulates my feelings about the Hugos and the SFF community so well.

[calissa]

Ooo, yes, Stephanie Pui-Mun Law! I can hardly believe she hasn't won one already.
