The final Nebula Awards ballot has been posted. http://www.nebulaawards.com/index.php/guest_blogs/2009_nebula_award_ballot/
Random comments. Short stories came from: F&SF 4 Asimov's 3 Analog 1 online magazine (Helix) 1 anthologies 5 stand-alone novella 1 anthology reprinted in F&SF 1 That's the lowest percentage for the print magazines in a long time, though not nearly as low as in the heyday of the anthologies in the early 1970s. (1972: 3 out of 14.) A trend toward shorter titles continues. The six novels contain eight words in their titles, four with single words only. The previous years had 2, 2, and 3. Only one short story had as many as five words. The Norton has three one-word titles and one very long one. This is the first Nebula nomination for four people: David J. Schwartz, Johanna Sinisalo, Mike Allen, and Gwyneth Jones. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "R-SPEC: The Rochester Speculative Literature Association" group.
