The basic idea behind these blog posts is that while it may feel tacky (and some people may think it’s tacky) to post lists of your works that are eligible for awards, it can be an effective way to let people know about your work. Even if it doesn’t lead to awards or nominations, it’s still a way of letting people know what work you had published in the last year and helping that work find readers.
