Authors of speculative fiction, gamers and game writers! The 56th Nebula Award Nomination Announcement is streaming live the evening of March 15th at either of these locations:
Nebula Facebook
Nebula YouTube
I'm posting this in Lit Discussions so we can talk about any favorites you may have among this year's nominations, from novels to games to movies. What will they be? Any guesses?
This is what the Nebula newsletter has to say:
It's so exciting to be able to attend the Nebula events from the comfort of your own writing chair. You'll get to hear trained voice actors read selections from the nominated stories. Which would you vote for?
Better still is to be able to attend the Nebula Con from that same comfy chair. In your pajamas. If you want to learn firsthand how the pros write and publish, come join me for the conference in June. It is so worth it. And if they do things like they did last year, you'll receive a full year's worth of access to all kinds of stuff. And you actually feel a part of the larger writing world. (Look for the post about the Conference in Resources)

Join us on Monday, March 15, at 5:30pm PDT / 8:30pm EDT, for a launch announcing the finalists for the 56th Annual Nebula Awards®! The evening will be hosted by SFWA President Mary Robinette Kowal, who is also a SAG-AFTRA performer, and will livestream on SFWA’s YouTube and Facebook channels. It will include readings by SAG-AFTRA narrators, trailers, and sizzle reels for the nominated works.
Kowal shares, “I look forward to introducing the outstanding works that comprise this year’s Nebula ballot to the larger science fiction and fantasy community. Our partnership with SAG-AFTRA gives us an opportunity to highlight the power of these wonderful finalists.”
If you’ve been to one of our finalist receptions at past Nebula conferences, then you have an idea of how much fun it is to listen to seasoned performers narrate the nominated works and watch the trailers. While there will be no afterparty with the finalists on Monday, more information will be coming soon for an evening of celebration with them later in the week. However, those festivities will only be open to registered participants of the 2021 Nebula Conference Online, which takes place June 4–6, 2021. If you haven’t registered for 2021 yet, now’s the perfect time to ensure you can take part! If you have, thank you, and details will be coming soon.
Questions about the launch, the awards, or the upcoming conference may be directed to the SFWA Events Team at events@sfwa.org. We can’t wait to share the names of all the finalists and their works with you!
