JOHN W. CAMPBELL AWARD FOR BEST NEW WRITER [Not a Hugo]
Tobias S. Buckell (2nd year of eligibility)
Alexander C. Irvine (2nd year of eligibility)
Wen Spencer (1st year of eligibility)
Jo Walton (2nd year of eligibility)
Ken Wharton (2nd year of eligibility)
Three categories have six nominees due to two-way ties for fifth
place.
A total of 626 people cast Hugo Nominating ballots this year. 371
were cast electronically through the ConJose website.
This year's Hugo Awards include a special one-time category for
Best Web Site. All are first-time Hugo nominees, except for Dave
Truesdale, who received three nominations for the print version of
Tangent, from 1997 to 1999.
Three books on this year's ballot, the novels by Ken MacLeod and
China Miéville and the related book by Tom Shippey, were
published in the UK in 2000, but were eligible for this year's awards
due to an amendment to the Hugo rules allowing works published
outside the US in a prior year to be eligible again (if they were not
already nominated) when published in the US. (The amendment will
not be permanent unless ratified by this year's convention.)
First-time Hugo nominees this year include China Miéville, Jack
Dann, Brenda W. Clough, Shane Tourtellotte, Charles Stross, Karen
Haber, and Tom Shippey.
