The list of nominations is growing and growing... you are finding so many books, stories and works of non-fiction to nominate. In this latest update there are no additions to the Best Artwork category, though, so more nominations in this category would be particularly appreciated - even if it's just for something already on the list.
Members have until midnight to get their nominations in and can find all the rules and regulations of what to do here.
Rather unfortunately, we seem to be having difficulty with our nomination form today. However, I will take the time to check back every nomination received to make sure I have noted everything you wish to nominate. If you prefer you can just email awards@bsfa.co.uk
