I felt rather nervous about this, but I submitted Children of Doro for consideration by this year's Ursula K. Le Guin Award.
It *does* have a good claim for consideration, because it shares the same point of inspiration Le Guin used for "The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas". But I don't have high hopes, since it's indie published.
Still--if you published/loved a book last year that you think would do Le Guin proud, consider nominating that one, too.
