Home Again, Home Again
We dragged in from SoonerCon this evening. Yean, our tails are tired. We had a good time. I had a reading, sold four photographs at the art auction, herded a party, and generally didn't get a whole lot of sleep.
So I'm off to bed, with a book, of course.
More to come, I'm sure. It may ...

And Another Convention Bites The Dust
I forgot to mention this before: Twicon (they held their first event in Dallas last year) has ceased operations. According to announcement on their site, they blame the economy. And "competitive pressures."

Home Again, Home Again
There was a reason for the blogging silence over the weekend. We went down to ArmadilloCon in Austin. The hotel wanted $10 a day PER COMPUTER for wi-fi access. We did get a sweet deal on a very nice room, so I really don't have reason to complain on that front.

Another SF con bites the dust
(Disclaimer: I'm Programming Chair for FenCon V.)

Here we go again
Well. I had this huge post and I deleted it. It was just coming out wrong.

Just hit the end of the audio script I've been banging my head over this week. I'll have to go through and tighten it up a bit, but it seems to work. Paul is over at his computer reading it, and I hear the occasional laugh. This is good.
