What SFWA did to Mercedes Lackey is unforgiveable. It wasn't an award, it was an ambush; the luring of prizes and adulation replaced with public shaming. The social savaging of Mercedes Lackey was not inclusion - it was destruction.
The SFWA is now no more than a ravening gang and the Nebula Award no more than a tag to mark territory.
Make no alliances with vicious mobs, no matter how tempting... the claws with which they rip others will also slash you.
Good to know you are up and running! Any plans to set the old URL up to be a referrer page to the Substack. No sense letting it tempt China Mike into embarrassing his bots again.

Thank you for supporting Mercedes
SWFA will go the way of RWA, destroyed by people who claim to love it but really don't.
