2026 Ngaio Marsh Awards - Submissions List
Just a quick update to let you know that I've been building a submissions list for the Ngaio Marsh Awards for 2026 on the site.

There's also now a list on Hardover.app if that's more convenient.
(There's a lot of them / way too many to go in the normal monthly update).
