In addition to the nomination process, all members may suggest works for other members to read, but it is not part of the formal process. Those stories are listed in “Nebula Suggested Reading” which you may reach by going to the sidebar on the SFWA site.

Finally, members who wish to make work available for reading have two options.

If your work is generally available, we suggest that you add it to the SFWA Member Fiction Online.
If you want to make it available only to other SFWA members you may do so in the “SFWA Member Fiction” area of Discussion Forums. (Reminder, the Discussion Forums use a different username and password than the rest of the site)
