Was in a Twitter thread today in which one of the participants started to trash-talk the Best Fan Writer #HugoAward category.
And several of the points he raised stuck in my craw.
So let me re-iterate some of the reasons that Fan Writer is such a great category.
1/
Congratulations @JohnPicacio for winning his third Best Professional Artist #HugoAward!
"A shout-out to all my Mexicanx family. I look forward to you all being up here with me."
Reminder, this may be the last time an #EdgarRiceBurroughs story is Awards Eligible for anything other than a Retro Award.

.@RovinaCaiArt has been creating some gorgeous book cover and picture book art. She was recently nominated for a Spectrum Award for her IVYWOOD MANOR cover art published last year. 5/ #HugoAwards
.@francisvallejo fully illustrated @neilhimself's ANANSI BOYS and I think it's one of the finest books produced by @foliosociety last year. 4/ #HugoAwards
.@GregRuth has been doing some *stellar* SFF and horror film art for posters and packaging. Unlike a lot of film art you'll see, all of these are officially licensed and all were published in 2019. 2/ #HugoAwards
Hi! #HugoAwards nominations close in a week! Please consider nominating me for the Best Fan Artist award for my 2019 work with @strangehorizons, @thefuturefire, @lackingtons, and @anathemaspec !
For stories by @lavietidhar, Kathryn Allan, @karigrafia, and @cafenowhere.
Here's the full piece for my @thefuturefire cover for issue #52! I was inspired by "Pleiades for a New Generation" by Kathryn Allan!
(Also, please consider nominating my 2019 magazine work for the #HugoAwards for Best Fan Artist!)
When you're nominating for #HugoAwards Fan Artist, you should seriously consider @IainJClark for inclusion on your ballot.
He's very good, active in the SFF community, and has volunteered his fan art for Worldcon progress reports.

Btw, if any of you lovely folk are #HugoAwards nominators, I believe Conspiracy of Ravens would be eligible under Best Graphic Story, and would love if you'd consider it!
