Hugo nominations
Tuesday, 11 February 2025 10:39Hugo nominations are open! Every year I decide that I'm going to post a list of things I'm thinking about nominating, and every year I dither and delay and let the perfect be the enemy of the good, but not this year! Here is my current list! Obviously it is not exactly what my ballot is going to look like - there is so much time for more reading, plus some categories already have too many things, plus I will probably come up with some things for the artist and maybe editor categories before I actually nominate - but it's a start.
