The Nebula Awards Ceremony is IN THE BOOKS, but we have one more day of conference programming with a strong focus on our virtual offerings and community building.

This means panels on pro-human choices in a world of AI, mysticism, comics worldbuilding, and indie small presses.

And we have regional and affinity group meetups, too!

Hope to see you out, attendees. Thanks for sharing this weekend with us at SFWA!

WHAT A NIGHT! 😍

Thank you for sharing in the magic and the joy of our 61st Nebula Awards.

We are excited to announce that our next Nebula Awards Conference, from June 3-6, 2027, will be in Seattle. We'll have early-bird registration for you in a jiffy, but more importantly? We all have a LOT of 2026 reading and writing to do, to get us there! 😬

So get cracking, writers! Let's get YOUR names up in the spotlight next!

Congratulations to Stephen, and ALL the finalists on this brilliantly wide-ranging list.

You are remaking worlds, and reminding us we all can.

Our final Nebula Award for the night is, of course, the Novel.

The finalists in this category range so wonderfully across the genre. In them, you can see just how powerful and expansive our community is.

Did one of these works thrill you in the past year, too? We hope so!

Our Infinity Award is another recent addition to the Nebula landscape - and an important one. Not everyone lived long enough to be considered for SFWA Grand Master, and yet... our genre is FILLED with brilliant creators whose voices inspired and advanced the conversation in science fiction, fantasy, and related forms.

Thank you, Roger Zelazny, for everything.

Oh the mighty novella! How much we admire your power - especially when we see Nebula Finalist lists like this one. The writers here have built wonderfully rich worlds in tight, potent packages. How many of these novellas have YOU read during Nebula season?
