  2. @Sean Mead, Meredith Moment: Brust’s The Baron of Magister Valley is on sale for $2.99 at Kobo (and presumably other ebook venders). Thanks again for letting me know (via your nomination) that it’s out!

  3. My one nomination that’s unlikely to be nominated by anybody else:

    “Zoey’s Extraordinary Dad” in the Short Form Dramatic Presentation category. It’s the season-ending episode of the much underrated series Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist.

    “Zoey’s Extraordinary Dad” has AT LEAST two votes, because I voted for it as well.

    Agency; William Gibson
    The Angel of the Crows; Katherine Addison
    Machine; Elizabeth Bear
    The Vanished Birds; Simon Jimenez
    The Ministry of the Future; Kim Stanley Wilson

    Best Novella
    Prosper’s Demon; K. J. Parker (Tom Holt)
    The Empress of Salt and Fortune; Nghi Vo
    Ring Shout (I get that different sources say novella or novel); P. Djèlí Clark?
    Upright Women Wanted; Sarah Gailey
