Glasgow, sad to leave you! the last 24 hours: won Hugo, celebrated beloved author winning Hugo, got mistaken for Xiran Jay Zhao while literally standing on the ceremony stage w/said Hugo, got called a ch*nk by some hammered teenagers. grateful for Emily Tesh & her timely beautiful speech

stoked to see both @slhuang.com’s THE WATER OUTLAWS and @clpolk.com’s “Ivy, Angelica, Bay” on this fantastic ballot, surrounded by brilliant works. adding many things to my TBR pile, voting, and celebrating all the love & labor involved in organizing these awards

the incredible authors I got to work with in 2023 are so powerful they’re finalists in almost every fiction category for the Hugos. read them, love them, vote for them (voting closes today).

incredibly honored to have gotten to be a part of TWO of this year’s @ursulakleguin.bsky.social Prize finalists. @nghivo.bsky.social & @emilytesh.bsky.social are infinitely brilliant (and both of these books are also up for Hugos if you’re still filling out your ballot 👀)

if you, like me, just remembered that nominations close today + @freyamarske.bsky.social’s The Last Binding trilogy in series!
