2008 Preliminary Stoker Ballot

[joelasutherland]

Below is the official preliminary ballot for the Bram Stoker Award, announced earlier today. Congratulations to everyone who made the list. It's a long way from making the final ballot, but I'm honoured to be included among so many writers I respect and admire. Voting will begin on the first of February, so if there are any Active HWA members

Congrats Joel! I will chant to the gods of the Dracula statue in your behalf.

Thanks Adrienne! Your willingness to go the extra mile for me brings tears to my eyes. That's true friendship. ;)

I love the phrasing 'Superior Achievment...' Oh yes. I likes that very much. It makes me wanna strut, y'know? Do the full Mick Jagger thang.

[joelasutherland]

Well, if you do strut -- you rock star, you -- make sure to post it on YouTube.

And once again, congratulations on FOURTOLD!

WOW! A huge, much deserved CONGRATS to you, Joel! That is a serious list of wonderful authors and books, and I'm so happy that FROZEN BLOOD is getting the recognition it deserves :)

Cheers,
Thea

Thank you Thea! And a big thank you for all the support The Book Smugglers has given me along the way. That's a class act website you and Ana are running.
