I think it's kind of interesting that a Twitter thread gets a Hugo nomination, but that's what makes it special. As a story it's a well-explored trope--the letter, phone call, etc. from someone who seems to know a lot about you that only you know. Those get harder to do now because there's so much of our lives that is surveilled and recorded. So it was fun to chase this down and read it in the thread, but as a story, well, it's fiction I guess. The author wrote it the way she did because she is against others trying to monetize her work.
