Nominate Your Favorite Female/Feminist Author!

Cross-posted from FEM-SF

Anyone can nominate people to be a WisCon Guest of Honor. The nominations then make up the ballot, which will go out to concom members in mid-March. This is for selecting the GoHs for next year, in 2008.

From the latest eCube (which you may have already seen), the complete explanation:

=================================
WISCON 32 GUEST OF HONOR NOMINATIONS INVITED

Nominations for WisCon 32 Guest of Honor open on Sunday, February 25 and will be collected through midnight Central Time on Sunday, March 11. Please email your suggestions to newsletter31@wiscon.info. Include the name of your nominee and a short paragraph explaining why they would be a great choice for Guest of Honor in 2008. ANYONE may nominate guests of honor.

On Monday, March 12, an electronic ballot listing all nominees, with supporting paragraphs, will be sent to the ConCom and the Programming lists. In cases where the same candidate is nominated by more than one person, that fact will be noted on the ballot, and the supporting paragraphs will be condensed to a single one that covers all the highlights.

Only those individuals currently involved in the planning and execution of WisCon 31 are eligible to vote. Voting will run from Monday the 12th through midnight Central Time on Sunday, March 25, 2007. Ballots may be emailed, snail-mailed, or brought in person to the March 25 ConCom meeting at the Concourse. Calls will be made inviting the top two candidates to WisCon 32, and the guests' names will be announced at WisCon 31.
