What the puppies have done is make the Hugos into something that is taken seriously again. A battlefield is always something to be taken seriously... It just never looks the same afterward. I just returned from reading Larry's latest blog post. I laughed my ass off at the comment thread.

A friend once inflicted a Chuck Tingle story on me.

It was gratuitous and the man definitely has an obsession with being pounded in the ass. It was still better sci-fi story than Ancillary Justice. I will never willingly read one of his stories again, but I can safely assume he probably earned a Hugo.

....and Eris looked at what the Puppies had wrought upon the Hugos, and She smiled.

At least you can't say the Hugos are boring anymore.

Maybe we should all write stuff for Hugo consideration.

Eris approves of this idea. Kallisti.

I do want to say that I've gotten a lot of mileage out of this book by sending the link to my friends, saying "I think that I've found a book you will enjoy, it's right up your alley."
