This year’s World Fantasy Award nomination period is still open. The 2011World Fantasy  Awards will be presented in San Diego, CA during the World Fantasy Convention (October 27-30). Deadline for nominating online is May 31.

Anyone who has a supporting or full membership from the 2010 World Fantasy Convention, or the upcoming 2011 World Fantasy Convention may nominate works. If you didn’t attend World Fantasy last year, and you don’t plan to attend this year, you can still nominate by purchasing a supporting membership.

Already registered? Go and nominate your favorite works! (Note: You may email your ballot to the award administrator, Rodger Turner, to the email address listed on the nomination ballot.)

Here’s a list of works I edited that are eligible in the various World Fantasy categories. Linked titles are available to read online for free. (Note that the World Fantasy categories are slightly different than the Nebulas and Hugos in regard to word counts: World Fantasy considers a Novella to be 10,000-40,000 words and Short Story to be 10,000 words or less, whereas the Nebulas and Hugos divide those categories differently, and have a third category (Novelette) in between.)

Titles annotated with DATLOW, HORTON, GURAN, or JONES indicate that the story in question has been selected for inclusion in the editor’s best-of-the-year anthology.
