Once again, a speech. . . T. Kingfisher is excited about a Hugo, and....

Here I am sharing speeches again. T. Kingfisher, who is also Ursula Vernon, writer of quirky fantasy, appallingly scary contemporary horror, and bestselling children's books, just won the Hugo for her novel NETTLE AND BONE, a wonderful fantasy if you love the kind that starts like a fairy tale and then veers onto the off-road track at 100 mph.

She's been fighting the battle of Bob, her name for a tumor that SHALL die, thank you very much. Bob is horrified by her treatment and we're all hoping things keep going extremely well.

In the meantime, Ursula and Mur Lafferty and loved ones had a tiny Zoom party while struggling with streaming from China and Worldcon.

Here is her version, and her acceptance speech.

Remember--there is almost always light at the end of the frog!

I loved her acceptance speech.

Me, too.

I sometimes feel like that little water beetle. I have spent a huge amount of my life thinking "There's gotta be another exit." For just about everything.
