@kcfennessy they pop up from under the waves, pop the shot, and dive away – 11:48 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt right, HH reading. So people knew he was black by this point. But no idea what he looked like. – 11:50 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt So I sat down next to this portly bearded leather daddy, along with my party. – 11:51 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt we chatted among ourselves. Major topics: “what does he look like?” and “BEST SF AUTHOR EVAR SQUEEE” – 11:52 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt so The Stranger dude who was hosting intros the man, and, as you have already figured out, the beardy leatherman stands up. – 11:54 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt This was pre-publication of HOGG, which he proceeded to regale us with excerpts of. He’s a trickster. I will always love him. – 11:56 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt Sadly for me I was too mortified to follow up that night. There’s no chance he doesn’t remember it though. He must have hurt. – 11:57 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt due to stifled chortling I mean. I went on and on. He is broad beamed, so as I ranted, we were in actual physical contact. – 11:59 PM GMT
