Are you a SFWA active member? You have cast your ballot for the Nebula Awards, haven’t you? I mean, tomorrow is the last day.
The biggest reason I hear from people who haven’t is that they just haven’t read much this year. I understand that. But let me propose a scenario. Read the nominees the way you would if you were an editor and could only pick one to buy. In other words, you only have to read far enough to know that you wouldn’t vote for it.
Maybe that seems unfair, but it is an accurate reflection of how our industry works. Trust me, the nominees are so wildly different that even if you read only the first three pages to narrow it down, you’ll have a solid sense of which stories you connect with. You don’t have to vote in all of the categories, either, just the ones in which you have an opinion.
So, participate. Please?
