Maybe my story Birthright in the Meerkat Superhero Anthology?
Nice of you to do this, Cat. Best of success with yours this year! Here’s my post on Eligibilty for awards 2017. Wulf Moon https://driftweave.com/2017/12/11/awards-eligibility-2017/
I haven’t checked my eligibility for all the awards you’ve mentioned, but I’m pretty sure my trilogy qualifies for the Hugo ‘series’. The first book was published Sept/2016 and the other two in 2017.
The Bobiverse series:
We are Legion (We are Bob)
For We are Many
All These Worlds

If you mail me the links at catrambo AT gmail, I’ll edit them in.

In 2017 I published Mountain, a near-future YA novella. It was endorsed by Candas Jane Dorsey and Governor General’s Award winning artist and writer Heather Spears. It’s available from Overdrive, as an Ebook and as a paperback from the publisher and online retailers. It’s received nice notices in Canada and the US. In my Awards Post I also talk about indigenous Canadian writers of speculative fiction Eden Robinson and Leanne Betasamosake Simpson. Both were published as mainstream and shortlisted for major Canadian awards.
Hey Cat, here’s my modest eligibility post: https://storyrainthejournal.dreamwidth.org/597386.html
🙂 Thank you!
I finally put up an awards eligibility post! http://winniewoohoo.com/saying-goodbye-to-2017/

Birthright, published by Meerkat Press in ‘Behind The Mask: A Superhero Anthology, is a story about sacrifice.

My own eligibility post:
http://www.jameswylder.com/blog/2018-hugo-eligibility-rachel-survived
I think a story of mine is eligible? It’s called “The Fourth Hill” and appeared in Asimov’s September issue last year. I realize I’m right at the end of the nominating season but I’ve been a little busy with school and work the past few months and didn’t really look into any of this. 🙂
