May 14, 2013 at 12:21 pmSo maybe I ought to be more aware of exactly who has won Nebula awards, but… So just going from the list above, I’ve really liked Delia Sherman, Connie Willis and some of Catherine Asaro’s stuff. No favorites, as usual.

May 14, 2013 at 2:44 pmI’m going to add to the Connie Willis and Neil Gaiman love here. Also, I just found Ken Liu’s stories and they are so, so pretty.

May 14, 2013 at 4:08 pmOh, it’s so hard to name just one! Going with just a few, I’d have to agree with whoever mentioned Lois McMaster Bujold, as well as Neil Gaiman and Jo Walton, but I also really liked Paolo Bacigalupi’s The Windup Girl… Also, Catherynne M. Valente for novellas!

May 14, 2013 at 8:02 pmKen Liu’s “The Paper Menagerie” has to be one of the best short stories I’ve ever read (and this is coming from a lady with an MA in English Language & Literature!). It is absolutely breath-taking and absolutely deserved the awards it received. Lovely.

May 14, 2013 at 10:15 pmThanks to the Booksmugglers, I would have to say Connie Willis. To Say Nothing of the Dog and Blackout/All Clear are just so *awesome* in SO many ways.
