The Nebula Award and Norton Award noms are out. Go, Dave Schwartz and Superpowers! Go Ysabeau! And Kelley! And Doc Kessel! And Kij! And Jeff! And Rick Bowes and Jim Kelly! And pretty much everyone, really! Good list, is what I'm saying, and particularly kudos to the Norton jury for excellent selections.
