Vox has posted his <a href=\"http:\/\/voxday.blogspot.com\/2017\/03\/rabid-puppies-2017.html\">slate<\/a> and it includes the now obligatory dinosaur buggery story. But there has been tactical change. The E Pluribus Hugo rules change means that attempting to monopolize every nominee spot is futile. So for the most part a single nominee is listed for each category. Some but not all of the nominees are Castalia House authors. For the VFM of Vox Day these choices (including \u201cAlien Stripper Boned from Behind By the T-Rex\u201d by Stix Hiscock!) are a duty that allows for no substitution. For others, these are a list of suggestions that provide choices that don\u2019t correspond to a social justice slate. I\u2019ve found Castalia House a very reliable source of enjoyable fiction. But of course, one man\u2019s meat is another\u2019s poison, so decide for yourself.<br \/>\nOne interesting development that may or may not be related, Vox included File 770 as a pick for BEST FANZINE but that blog asked to be left out. Now, File 770 despises Vox and all things Puppy, so possibly this is one of those reactionary withdrawals but who knows?<br \/>\nSo, I\u2019ve got some reading to do. Although I can confirm that Deadpool would already be my choice for \u201cBEST DRAMATIC PRESENTATION, LONG FORM\u201d (movie). I await also the lists that the Sad Puppies put out. These new choices from the various puppies, sad and rabid, are a boon to old timers like me who decades ago despaired of ever seeing old time fantasy and science fiction. If you are of a like mind I recommend you give the puppy choices a look see.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Any fear that the annual Hugo debacle would be called off on account of boredom is allayed.
