Madeline Ashby, who is clearly fabulous, has written about her eligibility for the Campbell Award. Â It would appear, Â because of an earlier publication, she actually is ineligible. Â I think she would have made a worthy nominee and winner, but admire her posting about it.
Given Madeline is not eligible for the Campbell, I’d suggest considering her  second novel, iD: The Second Machine Dynasty for  Best Novel or story “Social Servicesâ€Â for Best Short Story.
While I’m disappointed she can’t be on the Campbell ballot, Â I’m glad she has work out there that can be considered in these and other categories.
