Thanks to all the HWA Members who nominated BARFODDER: Poetry Written in Dark Bars and Questionable Cafes, and to those voting for it to get on the final ballot. I'm surprised and delighted - there are so many good poetry books out there (many of which are *also* nominated on the preliminary ballot, too).
