Scalzi Celebrates Hugo Victory, Finds Full Circle in Old Man’s War
John Scalzi uses a follow-up blog post to reflect on winning the Hugo Award for Best Series (Old Man’s War), explaining the series’ eligibility history, the 20-year arc from his Campbell Award win to this Hugo, and the collaborative effort behind the books; he thanks editors, publishers, narrators, and readers, notes that a Hugo for a series is retired from contention after a win, and playfully engages with his Fictional Interlocutor while acknowledging mixed opinions about the Hugos' relevance and the chance to write more in the universe in the future.
