The novelettes most likely to have been nominated for the 2014 Hugos in a non-puppy year (based on final nominating statistics) are all available online. The Crosshill, Emrys and Wilson were on the Locus recommended list, and beat out better known authors who mostly were published in print magazines or anthologies. The Crosshill story is in Horton’s best of the year collection, and Wilson’s story made Strahan’s best-of collection. Dozois didn’t include any of these.
