It’s the time of year where the Australian Ditmar Awards are open for nominations – ie voting (lasting until August 7th). These are fan-voted awards where anyone active in fandom can vote. If you read Sci-fi/Fantasy/Spec Fic, you’re probably eligible to nominate. If you’ve been to a convention, even better. If in doubt, you can still nominate and mention your qualifying criteria with your vote (which you need to do anyway) and let the judges decide.
If you would like to vote for a book/story, even if it is not one of mine go for it! But since I’m hinting at it, my book Sovereign Assassin is eligible this year in the Best Novel category. These are the details you’ll need: Sovereign Assassin, Robert New [VIC], Shooting Star Press.
