So how'd I do with my selections? For predictions that I made (all the fiction and dramatic presentation awards) I hit them all except short story. For my preferences "Tideline" was my second choice but "All Seated on the Ground" was far from my favorite novella; that was a selection based on the fact that the story would be a home town favorite.
