Some of my stories published last year are eligible for various awards.

“That Leviathan, Whom Thou Hast Made” is a novelette, and is eligible for the Nebula and Hugo awards in that category.  Because it was originally published in Analog Science Fiction, it is also eligible in that category for the Analog Readers’ Awards.  The story can be read for free for a limited time on my website.

“Rejiggering the Thingamajig” is a short story, and is eligible for the Nebula and Hugo awards in that category. Because it was originally published in Analog Science Fiction, it is also eligible in that category for the Analog Readers’ Awards. You can read or listen to the story for free at Escape Pod.

“An Early Ford Mustang” is a short story.  While it is eligible for the Nebula and Hugo awards in that category, I think “Rejiggering the Thingamajig” is a better story.  Because it was originally published in InterGalactic Medicine Show, it is eligible for the first annual InterGalactic Awards, in which readers vote for their five favorite IGMS stories of the year.  However, while I like this story, IGMS published at least ten stories that I think were even better than mine, so I think you should pick five of those.  (I won’t say which ten, but I will tell you this: “Sister Jasmine Brings the Pain” by Von Carr is my favorite story of the year, not just in IGMS, but anywhere.  As an assistant editor at IGMS, I’m not allowed to submit a Nebula recommendation for it, but I sure hope other people do.)

By now, I’m sure you’re asking, “How do I get in on voting (or not voting) for your stories, Eric?”  Good question.

The Nebula Awards are given by SFWA (The Science Fiction & Fantasy Writers of America), so if you’re not a member, you can’t recommend my stories.  But if you are an Associate or Active member of SFWA, please consider recommending my stories if you find them worthy.

The Hugo Awards are given by the World Science Fiction Convention (a.k.a. WorldCon).  Anyone can vote by paying for a WorldCon membership (only $50 if you’re not going to attend the convention).  But you have to join by January 31 in order to nominate for the Hugo Awards.

The Analog Readers’ Awards don’t seem to cost anything but your privacy: They want your name, address, and email when you vote. Hurry: The deadline is February 1.

The InterGalactic Awards can only be voted on by subscribers. Hurry: the deadline is January 31.
