truepenny: artist's rendering of Sidneyia inexpectans (Default)

As [livejournal.com profile] matociquala points out (::blows kisses at Bear::), I'm eligble for the Campbell Award this year (in either my first or second year of eligibility, depending on what rules we use).

So if you're eligible to nominate (and there are Rules about that, too, having to do with membership in a Worldcon, and I'm not quite sure how they go either) and you think I'm deserving ...

...

...

...!

I can't actually say it. All my social conditioning from growing up female in the mid-South has just risen up, righteous in its wrath, and hissed, "You vulgar, conceited hussy! You stop that right this instant!" And paralyzed with mortification and the guilty certainty of being wrong, all I can do is say humbly, "Yes, ma'am," and shut the hell up.

But you know what I mean, right?

Well, hey, the fact that you posted about this at all is definitely another step in the direction of giving the finger to said social conditioning.

As is the book itself, so hey. *g*
