The live text and video feed at www.thehugoawards.org, run by Cheryl
Morgan and others, allowed far-off nominees to suffer killing suspense
in real time and was much admired. So was the base design, inspired by
Aboriginal myths of the rainbow serpent; though George R.R. Martin
thought an antipodean Hugo should have a little pouch on the rocket,
holding a smaller one. Voting turnout was high.
NOVEL a tie, very rare in Hugo history: Paolo Bacigalupi, The Windup
Girl, and China Miéville, The City & The City.
NOVELLA Charles Stross, 'Palimpsest' (Wireless).
NOVELETTE Peter Watts, 'The Island' (The New Space Opera 2). He'd bet
he wouldn't win: 'Thanks for costing me $20, you guys.'
SHORT Will McIntosh, 'Bridesicle' (Asimov's 1/09).
RELATED WORK Jack Vance, This is Me, Jack Vance!
GRAPHIC STORY Kaja and Phil Foglio, Girl Genius, Volume 9: Agatha
Heterodyne and the Heirs of the Storm.
DRAMATIC, LONG Moon.
DRAMATIC, SHORT Doctor Who: 'The Waters of Mars'.
EDITOR, LONG Patrick Nielsen Hayden – who ruled himself out from next
year's award, wanting to see new blood.
EDITOR, SHORT Ellen Datlow.
PRO ARTIST Shaun Tan.
SEMIPROZINE Clarkesworld – the first online fiction magazine to win
this.
FAN WRITER Frederik Pohl.
FANZINE StarShipSofa.
FAN ARTIST Brad W. Foster.
John W. Campbell (new writer): Seanan McGuire.
• Worldcon 2012. Chicago's unopposed bid naturally won the site
selection vote.
