Conventions
Aug. 1st, 2012 08:18 pmPreliminary schedule for Chicon arrived this evening. I don’t want to post times/dates yet because it may change. So far, it’s a reading, autographing, a kaffeeklatsch, and something called Writers Under Glass:
Writers volunteer to sit in a certain place for 30-40 minutes each and write serially on a collaborative story. Each takes up where the previous left off throughout the run of the convention. The resulting manuscript will be printed out only once, signed by all the writers, and entered into the charity auction as a contribution from all the writers.
I hope I get to keep this item. Looks like fun.
In other news, attendance at WFC looks iffy. At least one semi-significant house repair will hit this month. Then there are King’s health issues. If he winds up needing abdominal surgery, I will likely need to bag the con.
Holding out a little hope, but not much.

Date: 2012-08-02 02:45 am (UTC)I'm good, though. I'll enjoy the story thing. The kaffeeklatsch is scheduled for Sunday brunch time--if anyone shows, I think we should try to find a brunch place.
My evenings are free. I like that.
