BCS Recuses from Best Semiprozine Consideration

Editor Scott H. Andrews announced in an editorial that Beneath Ceaseless Skies (BCS) “recuses the magazine from further nominations or finalist appearances for the Hugo Award for Best Semiprozine.”

There are many other indie zines, run by dedicated staff and publishing great and important stories, whose work in our opinion deserves a Best Semiprozine finalist and the boost in reach and support it can provide. We want to see them get it.

The post encourages voters to continue to consider works published in BCS for nominations, as well as the editor, and gives a short list of suggestions for Best Semiprozine nominations.
