In which Seanan needs to submit things.

The Hugo voting packet is being assembled, and they want items from the Campbell nominees to allow voters to make a more informed choice. Since I want the tiara, I naturally want to put my best foot (and chainsaw) forward. We're submitting the first four chapters of Rosemary and Rue—what else should go in?

My bibliography is here, and up to date. It contains everything but the "Velveteen vs." series, which is archived elsewhere.

So...suggest. What should I send in? Justify your choices.

Help?

I concur, if it is elgible. I loved Rosemary and Rue, but FEED I want to marry and settle down with and have a house with a picket fence and alien plants in the back yard and I'll cook like Betty Crocker and look like Donna Reed and... I think you get the picture.

It grabs from the very beginning. I read it yesterday while eating sushi. I read it while sitting at the park watching baby goslings while recovering from being stood up for a date, and it was so good that I was mostly okay that I had been stood up for the date. I'll stop babbling now.

...I sort of want that as a blurb. "This book is so good that it makes it mostly okay when you get stood up for a date."

So you like the book, dear?
