This is awesome! So, unless you didn’t hear, I am nominated for a Hugo Award as a Fan Writer this year<\/a>! Which is IMMENSELY EXCITING! I made a wonderful friend at LeakyCon a week ago, and she thought it would be brilliant to get me to read all three of the short story nominations for this year’s Hugos. LET US JOURNEY FORTH TOGETHER.<\/p>\n

There are only three nominations this year, which makes voting easier only in the sense that you don’t have to pick between five things. However, in terms of quality, it’s nearly impossible, as all three of these stories are INCREDIBLE.<\/p>\n
