| Given the subpar to horrendous slate of Hugo nominees this year, I thought it would be nice to point out that everyone can vote for the Locus awards - I hope that lots of people will vote and that quality works will win out!
Some facts on the Locus award:
- You can vote here: http://www.locusmag.com/Magazine/2015/PollAndSurvey.html
- Voting is open to everyone (but subscriber votes count double)
- The voting deadline is April 15 (tax day in the USA)
- The knowledgeable staff there has assembled a shortlist of recommendations, but you can write in any eligible nominee you like
- Staff manually reviews the votes and throws out block voting (Yeah - no Sad Puppy slate here)

Thanks, Engelbrecht. |

| The nominees have been announced. All in all, they're a very nice populist list, and a great anodyne to the Hugo mess.
