Nominations for the 2010 Locus Awards, run by Locus magazine, are now open!
Anyone can nominate, and if you're a Locus subscriber they count your vote double. The deadline is April 1. Details, and the online nomination form, are here (https://secure.locusmag.com/Magazine/2010/Issue02_PollAndSurvey.html).
What BCS Stories are Eligible:
Anything published in calendar 2009, which is BCS Issue #7 through Issue #33, inclusive.
(Note that only one piece from BCS, Thieves of Silence (http://www.beneath-ceaseless-skies.com/story.php?s=43) by Holly Phillips, is on Locus's default list of nomination choices. Any other BCS story you will have to write in in one of the Write-In spaces at the bottom of that category.)
