SFWA Members: I Need Your Help to win a Bradbury

So last night — at 10 PM — I received a message saying Disconnect has been nominated for a Ray Bradbury award (given out at the Nebulas each year for “best dramatization”).

So that dropped my jaw.

Then I find out: in order to make it to the finalist’s list, I need enough nominations to make it to the top six.

So basically — I need a hand from my Science Fiction Writers of America friends.

Today is the LAST DAY for voting for the Ray Bradbury Award (as well as for the rest of the Nebulas).

If you are a member of SFWA, and haven’t yet voted (or are willing to change yours for an independent piece), consider placing a vote for “Stranger Things (Episode 5: “Disconnect”), Earl Newton (Writer/Director).”  If you haven’t yet watched the episode, you can see it here for free: Disconnect (20 mins).

Click here to vote (you’ll need your SFWA username and password).  LInk provided by a friendly (and supportive) SFWA member.

This is completely a last-minute discovery, but if it would actually happen, just being a finalist among films like District 9 and Avatar would open some doors here in Los Angeles.

If you do vote for it, let me know, so I can owe you huge favors in the future.
