Rich Horton comments on the Nebula Prelim Ballot

Rich Horton has commented on the preliminary Nebula ballot. Including this, about the short story selection.

Given the stories listed, my choices come down to “Always” and “For Solo Cello, Op. 12″, both of which are in my SF Best of the Year. I think those two stories are outstanding (and I’m delighted to see Kowal’s story on the ballot — I had thought myself pretty brilliant for plucking it from an Australian magazine myself!) The other stories are all OK, but none strike me as really award-worthy.

Excuse me, but I need to go lie down. Smelling salts, anyone?
