2012 Conventions and stuffage
Jan. 31st, 2012 09:37 amMy incredibly tentative convention/conference schedule for the year:
February: Megacon, February 17-19, 2012, which caught me by surprise since it's usually been in March. On the bright side, I am assuming this will mean that the con will no longer be competing with the cheerleading competions, which is a plus for everyone.
My Megacon schedule is completely dependent upon other people, but currently it looks as if I will be there Saturday afternoon and possibly Sunday. The con is generally jammed, but if you want to meet up, shoot me an email/text and we'll arrange something.
March: International Conference for the Fantastic in the Arts, March 21-25, Orlando Airport Marriott, Orlando, Florida.
Unlike pretty much everyone else at this one, I will not be doing any readings/papers/panels. Mostly, I will be hanging out at the pool, or, for a change of scenery, hanging out at the bar.
I am, however, hoping to have/host an another Unofficial Official Poets Dinner Thursday evening. If you're interested in joining, let me know. More details as the date nears!
I also signed up for the ghost thingy. Anybody know what that actually is? My mind just saw "ghost" and clicked.
April:
Spring Fever in the Garden, Winter Garden, FL, April 14-15, 2012, at the Here Be Dragons Bookshoppe. It's entirely possible that Cthulhu like things may be coming along with me.
Tentative:
Worldcon 2012, August 30-September 3, 2012, Hyatt Regency Chicago.
Dragoncon 2012, August 31-September 3, 2012, Atlanta.
Clever people will have noticed the problem here.
Dragoncon is closer and cheaper, and filled with more real life friends, including a couple that I haven't had the chance to hang out with in years, but presents far more physical challenges. Worldcon is, well, Worldcon.
World Fantasy Convention, November 1-4, 2012, Toronto, Canada.
I have this down as tentative only because of finances, but as long as nothing too unexpected appears in the budget, I hope to be there.
As always, this schedule is subject to change.
