Yeah, its not really a curated list so much as "these are all the works we talked about in email before the panel"
I agree with you about Trail of Lighting. But I've frequently found that when I ask for recs for hopeful stories, I get recs that I find bleak --so people seem to have wide range of what they find hopeful. Other panelists felt that some works on the list where not angry enough to be Hopepunk.
