scarlettina: (Book love)
This year's Nebula Award nominees have been announced. Congratulations to everyone who was nominated. In particular I want to single out my peeps for their achievements:

[livejournal.com profile] papersky for her magnificent novel, Among Others
[livejournal.com profile] maryrobinette for her novella, "Kiss Me Twice"
[livejournal.com profile] kijjohnson for her novella, "The Man Who Bridged the Mist"
Adam-Troy Castro for his double nomination, his novella "With Unclean Hands" and his short story "Her Husband's Hands"

Huge congratulations and good luck to you all.

Interesting to see the Dramatic Award nominees. I didn't see the Captain America movie, but I find myself surprised to see it on the list. I'm delighted that Midnight in Paris and The Adjustment Bureau made the cut; I knew that the Doctor Who episode "The Doctor's Wife" would would. The appearance of Hugo on the ballot is interesting to me because it's not technically science fiction or fantasy, though it has the distinct flavor of the genre. (Don't get me wrong; I agree with the nomination. I just think it's interesting that, when critically examined, the film's fantastic and/or speculative elements are minimal and yet here it is on the ballot.) I'm curious to hear people's thoughts on its inclusion.
