ellenkushner'Tis the Season for all the 2011 Award Nominations - and we* are just thrilled to find ourselves up for these, for our revival of the classic Bordertown series - for a new audience. If you could possibly spare a few moments, your vote could count a lot:
• Teenreads.com, in association with the Children’s Book Council (CBC) and Every Child a Reader (ECAR) has announced their 2012 Teen Choice Book of the Year Nominees – and we’re nominated! Voting closes on February 15. The 5 titles that receive the most votes will serve as finalists for the CBC’s 2012 Teen Choice Book of the Year. So please head over here and vote your faves - we hope Welcome to Bordertown will be one of them!
• Welcome to Bordertown made the Locus Online Recommended Reading List under Best Anthology! Which should be enough for anyone - but it also puts us on the docket for the Locus Awards Ballot. You don't need to be a Locus subscriber to vote:

The fine thing about all this is that the ballots are broad - you have a chance to see and vote for lots of other nominees in many other categories (coughcough like Delia Sherman's The Freedom Maze in Locus' Best Young Adult Books) - and to get recommendations for fabulous stuff you may even not have read!
*That would be my co-editor, Holly Black (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
