Now that this year's Nebula awards are over and awarded, the Hugo Awards move into the spotlight. Many of the short stories nominated this year overlap with those nominated for the Nebula; in fact, only two stories are up for a Hugo that were not also in the running for that earlier award, and both are available online for free. So, let's take advantage of this serendipitous turn of events and focus on those two stories for our June discussions.
The two stories in question will each have their own discussion thread:
The other three stories nominated for the Hugo this year are Movement by Nancy Fulda, The Cartographer Wasps and the Anarchist Bees by E. Lily Yu, and The Paper Menagerie by Ken Liu. Each has their own discussion thread below from our Nebula discussion, so you can still visit those anytime and add your thoughts.
The awards ceremony (Chicon 7) will be held September 2, 2012.
