YouTuber and Hugo nominee TheLindsayEllis makes her fiction debut with upcoming novel 'Axiom's End'
films and the impact they had on New Zealand's film industry earned Ellis — and her writing and editing partner Angelina Meehan — her first Hugo Award nomination for Best Related Work."We are up against... *checks notes* ... Ursula K. LeGuin and the very institution of fanfiction itself. ...well, it's an honor just to be nominated!"
As she predicted, Ellis and Meehan lost to Archive Of Our Own, a long-running archive of fanfiction —"Called it!" she joked — but as someone who grew up writing fanfiction herself, she is no sore loser. But Ellis is also aware that for some readers, a book by someone known primarily for YouTube might be a hard sell.
The topic of language is an important one for Ellis. Though she didn't major in it, she studied linguistics in college, and is even giving a talk in Las Vegas at the end of September about writing alien languages, especially in first-contact fiction., but other times it will be sidestepped entirely, because that's not what the story is about.
