This is the story that I messed up during the live blogging due to coming in on the tale end of a conversation between Dave, Paul Cornell and Paul’s wife, Caroline. Dave was talking about using a Hugo-nominated audiobook in a class, and I got very confused. Here’s the actual story.

Dave is taking acting classes. As part of their study, the class was asked to create an audiobook performance. For his work, Dave chose to read “26 Monkeys, Also the Abyss” by Kij Johnson (which you should all know was a Nebula nominee and is also a Hugo nominee). Dave says that the class was a bit dubious about having to listen to science fiction, but when they heard the story they all loved it.

And the reason that Dave had the story to hand was because it came in his Hugo Voter Package.
