As we approach the cut-off for Hugo nominations, I want to remind folks that the October Daye series IS eligible this year, on account of the genuinely horrifying number of words I've added to it over the last few years.
I try not to be all "hey hey me over here nominate me," but the rules in this category are just new enough, and hence confusing enough, that I really do feel like clarifying my eligibility matters.
(Also I am occasionally a petulant princess, and at least one person has said that my being nominated again would show "a lack of breadth" for the category, where Lois McMaster Bujold winning twice apparently did not show a lack of breadth?)
(She totally deserved both awards, please don't get me wrong, but it feels sort of like "oh, when it's two series by an author who writes SERIOUS SF/F," it's okay, whereas "when it's two series by an author who writes UF," it's not.)
Anyway, Toby is eligible, and I would very much appreciate you keeping that in mind as you fill out your ballot. Even if you don't nominate my poor blood-drenched girl, she's at least in the running for Spring Fling Queen.
