Let's keep this short. There's lots being written about the Hugos this year, with plenty of passion and finger-pointing. You could spend hours just reading the major blog posts about it. But the average indie writer just wishes someone would spend that precious time reading their book or story, then be passionate enough about what they read to post a review or tell a friend.
The world is imperfect. That's why I choose to spend some days in other worlds.
Aloha,
