Hodgepodge

The nominations are in and the choices are difficult in many categories. I will have a lot of reading to do before casting my ballot. It is certainly easier these days since most of the nominees do end up on the internet to read for free. The major magazines typically put their nominees up and often the authors will put up a copy of the best novel, so time is the only reason to not have read as many of the choices as possible.

My faves:

Novel
The Last Colony by scalzi
Rollback by Robert Sawyer

Feature Long Form
Enchanted

Artist
Phil Foglio

Fanzine
Argentus

Fan Writer

The other categories will require reading and some review. The one item I was unhappy about is the Heroes nomination as long form for a whole season. I would have no problem with an individual episode being nominated in short from ( that is one of the reasons I like the two categories), but a whole season doesn't seem right to me.
