Remember that we still have one more week of Hugo Award Discussion Nights coming up next Monday after the main meeting. Next week we'll go through the "top third" of the ballot, that being Best Related Book, Best Short Story, Best Novellette, Best Novella, and Best Novel.
I'll have all of the sheets for all of the categories. I encourage everyone to add their names to the endorsements of works you like. You can also add other proposals to any of the categories, because I'm not going to post the results until we've done all of the categories. Frequently Asked Questions: 1. Why do I ask for people's names on the sign-up list? When we publish the results on the Hugo_Recommend LiveJournal community, only those works with at least one name by them will go on the list, and we'll include the initials of everyone who endorsed a work. That's to show how much support the work has from our club members. If you can't stand up for your recommended work, don't recommend it. 2. Do I have to be a Worldcon member to make recommendations? No. This isn't the Hugo Award Ballot itself. This is the members of BASFA making recommendations of works they'd like to see nominated for a Hugo Award. 3. Are there limits to how many recommendations I can make? No. You can make as many or as few recommendations as you like. You can even recommend more than five works in a category, although of course if you're a Worldcon member eligible to nominate, you'll have to narrow that down to five choices before you fill out your ballot. 4. Do I have to come to BASFA to make recommendations? No. If you can't come to the meeting, e-mail me directly with your recommendations and I'll add them to the list. (Don't send it to the BASFA list! Edit your addressees if you reply to this message and send it only to me.) If you have any other questions about the process, contact me.
