I know that there are one or two people out there who either attended the last Worldcon or are supporters of the next one. You have received your instructions for the nomination process.

Please, please, go to the the Aussiecon site http://www.aussiecon4.org.au/hugoawards/ and nominate my story “The Nigerian Soul” at http://atomjackmagazine.com/2009/20091206a_Nigerian_Soul.html. You can vote for five stories, so why not include mine?

It would really please my mother if I was nominated. She’s well into her 80’s now and I don’t want you to disappoint her.

Thank you very much, Keith.
