Hugos

It's that time of year again - the nominations for the Hugos are due by March 13 (online ballot, linked here for my convenience). I do know I'm not flying to Australia, but I'll be voting. I haven't really thought much about the awards, so I'm open for suggestions. A few thoughts / questions I do have are:

A) Boneshaker is definitely on my best novel list.

B) I've heard rumors that C. L. Anderson, author of Bitter Angels, is a pen name for a more established author, and not eligible for the Campbell. Any confirmation on this? ETA: See comments for [livejournal.com profile] pyropyga's take.

C) J. Kathleen Cheney ([livejournal.com profile] j_cheney) is I think on her last year of Campbell eligibility. ETA: No, last year was her last year of eligibility.

D) Frank Wu ([livejournal.com profile] frankwu has taken himself out of the Best Fan Artist running, and is hosting a recommendations page here. Frank is suggesting that his girlfriend wife (or are they married? ETA They are married) Brianna be given a Fan Art nod.

Anyway, ballots are due March 13, and for about $50 you too can vote.
