Well, it's that time of year again for the Hugo nominations. People may nominate works if they were a supporting or attending member before January 31, 2015 of Sasquan, Loncon 3, or MidAmeriCon II. If you are a member of any of these conventions, you should have received an email with your member number and a pin number to use to log in to the Sasquan site here.
I try to nominate not just great books but also books that I think deserve some exposure or utilized some interesting idea. I often don't nominate works that won the previous year to give other books a shot. So for example, even though Ancillary Sword was a great book, I didn't nominate it because Justice won last year.

I'm glad to see PERSON OF INTEREST getting some love in the BDP-Short Form category. Unfortunately, I missed the episodes on your nomination list! Hopefully, I can at least find the screenplay online somewhere. My POI choices in the BDP-Short Form category are "Nautilus" and "The Cold War."
Good to see another PoI fan! Those episodes were certainly good as well.
