The 2025 Ditmar Awards are open for nominations

Jul 25, 2025

The 2025 Ditmar Awards are open for nominations, for work first published in the 2024 calendar year. (That includes my novel, Blood Covenant, if you thought that worthy of a nom!)

This is a fan/reader voted award, which means that the more people who get involved, the better a representation of good work we’re likely to see on the shortlists. Official wording says:

Nominations will be accepted from natural persons active in fandom, and from full or supporting members of Conflux 19 or Swancon 49 (no official Natcon took place this year due to circumstances beyond control). You may nominate as many times in as many categories as you like, although you may only nominate a particular person or work once.

Nominations close 11:59pm Eastern Standard Time Thursday 21 August. And you can nominate very easily with this online form:
