WorldCon: Renovation

I've been here since Tuesday but like so many find it hard to find any time to write/blog/anything but attend panels, eat and enjoy the company.

It is brilliant company, for the record.

I have enjoyed panels with such esteemed people as Connie Willis, Brandon Sanderson, Jim Kelly, Pat Rothfuss, Matt Rotundo, Glen Cook, Ken Schols, Carrie Vaughn and oh-so-many more. Name dropapalooza. Not that I spoke to many of these, mind you, but I tried to absorb the wisdom.

The panels are fabulous, the parties are happening, and I am very happy.

WorldCon 2011

I have officially submitted my registration for Renovation 2011.

This will actually be my second WorldCon, as I attended the 2002 San Jose convention. I remember bits and pieces of it. Mostly I remember listening to my father between official panels.

Considering I was seventeen at the Con (and clueless), this will be a totally different experience. I’m not sure what to expect, other than pure elation at seeing my Taos Toolbox friends.

Plenty of time to research and figure out my strategy for Reno. Right now the goal of attending is a wonderful motivator.
