"How to Talk to Girls at Parties" is a science fiction short story written in 2006 by Neil Gaiman.
It is about a couple of British 1970s teenaged boys, Enn and Vic, who go to a party to meet girls, only to find that the girls are very different from the boys' expectations.
"How to Talk to Girls at Parties" was nominated for the 2007 Hugo Award for Best Short Story and won the Locus Award for Best Short Story in 2007. In 2009, it was the inspiration for a limited-edition poster with art by Camilla d'Errico, which was sold through Gaiman's merchandising site Neverwear.[1] The poster had a limited run of 1200 copies, hand-numbered,[1] and 10% of the proceeds were donated to the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund, a favourite charity of Gaiman's.[citation needed] Gaiman published a graphic novelization of the story in 2016, with art by Fábio Moon and Gabriel Bá, and a film adaptation would ultimately premiere the following year at the Cannes Film Festival and widely release in May 2018 to split response from critics.
