I'd also suggest How To Train Your Dragon 2, since it a) passed the Bechdel Test (and not many films this year did), but b) Toothless and Cloudjumper were so brilliantly feline I could've watched two hours of just those two. Alas, I doubt many people will vote for it, and it might be splitting the pool in a year where I REALLY want The Book of Life to win. They had a long, hard road, only to get snubbed by the Oscars. Here's hoping the Hugos recognize talent where they see it.

Also, Ms. Marvel Volume 1: No Normal for Best Graphic Novel? G. Willow Wilson has done such an amazing job bringing Kamala Khan to life, and it's one of the stories that has gotten me back to having a monthly pull list again (that and Rat Queens). Both of them are excellent and well worth the nomination. And Marie Brannon's "Daughter of Necessity" tells Penelope's side of the Odyssey in such a moving way I had to put it on my ballot - it's free on Tor's site if people want to check it out.

Can Women Destroy Science Fiction be nominated as a whole for Best Related Work? Or do I have to nominate the stories individually? (or are both possible?)

Yes! to Kamala Khan.
