Unlike the Hugos, the Nebula awards are nominated and voted on by "active members" of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America, so these have not had the boondoggle in recent years regarding "puppies" and may be a better selection than the Hugos have had recently.
I am also surprised to see very few names on these lists that I recognize. Are SF/F readers here at MR not "in" on which authors are up and coming?

I don't read much horror but the Bram Stoker awards were announced on Saturday too.
