So, Neil won the Hugo at WorldCon. (American Gods got it.) And he really didn't think he was going to win, so he had no speech prepared. And because he didn't have a speech prepared, the following ended up being part of his impromptu acceptance:
"There are three things I always wanted since I was fourteen: heat vision, the names of the twins who sat across from me on the bus at school, and later, as a writer, the Hugo."
He finished with: "Fuck, I got a Hugo."
And Tad Williams asked, "Wait, can he say heat vision?"
Ah, my beloved authors.
