You know, it never occurred to me, while I was working on the nominations, that Hugo wasn't genre. When another Nebula-worker said exactly what you said, it brought me up short. I mean: automatons. Flights to the moon. That ridiculous contraption on the stationmaster's leg. Gears, clock parts--it feels deliciously steampunk (and I'm not a steampunk lover).
It's a very good list, representing writers old and new, traditional, small press, and online publishers.
And I got to write emails to Woody Allen and Martin Scorcese telling them about their nominations. And call Kij and Charlie Jane Anders and a couple of other people to tell them. Now that is a perk of the job.
