And while only three of my ...That is just awesome.<br /><br />And while only three of my choices won their respective categories - Correia, Nick Cole and David Weber - I can't see a single winner on there that I *disagree* with. <br /><br />Several of the categories were outright coin flips for me, which is why I picked Chuck Gannon over JCW in Best SF (and am still thrilled that JCW won), Declan Finn over Brian Niemaier (Niemaier won, of course) and Eric Flint/Andrew Dennis over Harry Turtledove in Alt-Hist. Which last category Naomi Novik won with the latest installment of her Temaraire series. Possibly because it might be odd if the inaugural Dragon Award didn't have at least one award going to somebody who writes about dragons. <br /><br /> :P<br /><br />Well-deserved congratulations to all the winners. And Hugos delenda est. <br /><br />--Wes S.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-86909577360583810822016-09-04T19:58:38.022-05:002016-09-04T19:58:38.022-05:00They perhaps did not intend to do so, but the Pupp...They perhaps did not intend to do so, but the Puppies, both Sad and Rabid, have shown that the Hugos are meaningless and gamed by the bunch that have owned them for better than 20 years. With the advent of the Dragon Awards, I think the Hugos will go to a much deserved death.Quartermasternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-61927012851939036452016-09-04T18:58:41.383-05:002016-09-04T18:58:41.383-05:00Outstanding!
