For the Hugo Nominees


In the midst of all the excitement yesterday, found out I might be attending the Hugo banquet with Apex Publications. Haven't been to prom, but might be attending the Hugos. I find this hilarious.


Woke up this morning mad at my friend Maurice Broaddus who goaded me into singing this to honor the nominees. *shakes fist* (Even in my dreams, he's incorrigible.) Re-posting the lyrics here.


We Are The Authors

(To the tune of We Are The Champions)


You've paid your SFWA dues /

Time after time /

You've induced internet rage /

But committed no crime /

And bad reviews /

You've had a few /

You've been ignored and bashed on Amazon /

But you've come through


We are great authors, my friends /

And we'll keep on writing, till the end /

We are the authors /

We are the authors /

No time for haters /

'Cause we are the authors /

Of many worlds


Tonight, you'll take your bows /

And your curtain calls /

We brought you fame and fortune and everything that goes with it /

You'll thank us all


But there's been no fairy godmother /

No galactic cruise /

You consider this a challenge before the depths of space /

And you ain't gonna lose /


(And the Hugos go on and on and on and ON)


We are the authors, my friends /

And we'll keep on writing, till the end /

We are the authors /

We are the authors /

No time for haters /

'Cause we are the authors /

Of many worlds.
