Novels: mixed. Perfect Circle or Strange & Norrell to win, please.

Novellas: not great. 'Golden City Far' is the best of them.

Short fiction: pretty strong. Good to see the Lanagan there.

Collection: some great collections in there. I'm rooting for the Lanagan or the Macleod.

Anthology: haven't read the two horror ones or The First Heroes, so...

Artist: no idea.

Pro award: I should know who ST Joshi is, right?

Non-pro award: Ariel! Also Matt Cheney! No idea who the others are.

Sorry about the formatting; I was being dragged out the door to make pesto. Fixed it up a bit.

I've read virtually nothing on there but congratulations to [info]sdn.

Oh yes, I missed that! Congratulations to her.

On reflection, I'm also a little surprised that Secret Life isn't there.

ST Joshi is an academic and anthologist who's done a lot of work with early twentieth-century weird fiction, esp. fantasy and horror: Lovecraft and Dunsany and the like.

The artist nominees have been updated -- there was a clerical glitch in the original posting.
