Calling all BSFA members – we STILL need your nominations!
Members have until 11th January to get their nominations in and can find all the rules and regulations of what to do here.
If you have a list, you may prefer to email me at awards@bsfa.co.uk rather than use the form. I don't mind!
Many of the nominations are viewable online and links are provided – why not have a peek?
Also, just because you see something on the list, don't assume it has a shortlist number of nominations behind it. It's on the list if it got at least one nomination - and some of them do have just the one nomination.
Thank you to those who noticed the artwork hyperlinks had got a little mixed up - it should all be sorted now, but if you do spot any anomalies I'll sort them out as quickly as possible.
