I’m hoping for Isabel J Kim on the best new writer. I’ve enjoyed many of her stories in Clarkesworld.

Yes, definitely hoping for the Children of Time series to win. I’m finishing up the first and looking forward to the next two.

The only novel in the finalists that I’ve read is Scalzi’s. It’s a fun read, but yeah, it’s not fantastic science fiction.

I’m looking at the Lemmy instances webpage https://the-federation.info/platform/73

Why are so many instances closed for sign-ups? Doesn’t seem like a good thing for the potential July 1st deluge of new users.
