These are the continuing journeys of me, James Pickering, and Les Webster of The Fellowship of the Geeks, as we ply the crowds at our first 71st World Science Fiction Convention or known as Lone Star Con 3!
Again, it’s another late night, but we had so much fun. The Hugo Awards are a once in a lifetime event, but I am truly going to try and do this again. I seriously could do this for the rest of my life. To be in the same room with so much talent is just a great experience.
Congratulations to all the winners, which I will list below. We’ve got one more day and I’ve got to prepare for it. Good night.

Thanks to The Hugo Awards website for the extra info. I can only write so fast in a darkened ballroom with a camera in one hand.
