Actually, my little rant here doesn't quite work because I mentioned the awards a couple too many times, so that's what people have fixated on.
My main concerns with regards to the Natcon are broadening the programming so that it's not so Lit-centric, and actively trying to draw the media fans back to the National Convention, since it's meant to be theirs as well.
I think my main problem voicing this was I was making an effort not to make it sound like I wanted new rules enforcing a 50/50 mix in the program or anything as horrifically bureaucratic and unworkable as that. That and the awards were my original starting point for this whole thing.
Get the people turning up, the awards will sort themselves eventually.
As to your suggestion regarding the look of the statuette - you may like the idea of having me sat on your mantle so you can perve on me all the time, but I don't think it would work for most people. But ask nice and I'll send you a picture you can stick over your bed.
