There are plenty of others that do, or should matter; the Arthur C. Clarke award, the Philip K. Dick Award, and the Aurora among them, but the two best known are the &#8220;Hugos&#8221; and the &#8220;Nebs.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This weekend it&#8217;s time for the Nebs, and since they&#8217;re being held in DC at the Dupont Circle Hilton this year, that makes it a whole lot easier for me to attend. I&#8217;ll be there with my camera(s) shooting on behalf of the Nebula committee. Keep an eye out here for pictures, which I&#8217;ll post as soon as I&#8217;m able.<\/p>\n<p>By the way, everyone is welcome to join us at the Nebs. The Friday mass signing is (I think) free, and you&#8217;re welcome to buy tickets for the rest of the activities. Even more so than Readercon, this is a gathering of writers looking to network and learn about their craft. It&#8217;s also a gathering of some of the most delightful and interesting folks you&#8217;ll ever meet, but that&#8217;s just a bonus.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Events I&#8217;m planning to shoot: (as well as wandering around during the weekend getting pictures at panels, in hallways and in the bar&#8230;)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Click on links for Flickr Image sets<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/elilley\/sets\/72157626644262565\/\">Friday: Reception Honoring Nominees\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Columbia Hall 5 &amp; 7 \u00a0\u00a0 \u00a09:00 p.m. \u2013 11:00 p.m.<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/elilley\/sets\/72157626782854908\/\">Saturday: Nebula Awards Banquet\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0International Ballroom East (Concourse Level) \u00a0\u00a0 \u00a07:15 p.m.; Banquet begins 7:30 <\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/elilley\/sets\/72157626782858100\/\">Saturday: Nebula Awards Presentation \u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0International Ballroom East (Concourse Level) \u00a0\u00a0 \u00a08:15 p.m. \u2013 10:00 p.m.<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Sources\/Links: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Nebula Awards Weekend:<\/strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sfwa.org\/nebula-weekend\/\">http:\/\/www.sfwa.org\/nebula-weekend\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><strong>Nebula Program: <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sfwa.org\/nebula-weekend\/events-program\/program\/\">http:\/\/www.sfwa.org\/nebula-weekend\/events-program\/program\/<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you read SF or Fantasy, you&#8217;re probably aware of the two awards publishers hope to get a chance to show on the cover of the paperback edition of last year&#8217;s hot new book, the Hugo (World SF Convention)\u00a0 and the Nebula( Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America).
