Hi folks! We didn't win the Hugo Award for Best Semiprozine this year, but we had pre-recorded an acceptance speech for the ceremony in case of technical difficulties. We're sharing it with our audience as a way to say thank you for all your support!

Thanks for the lovely speeches!  Sorry you didn’t win.

Just a suggestion for when you do win:  you might want to think about having each speaker introduce themselves.  Adam Pracht was good enough to tell us who he was, and of course I recognized the voices of Tina Connelly and the inimitable Alasdair Stuart, but the rest of you were just nameless talking heads to me.   :-[
