Armadillocon 32 - Austin, TX :)

[paragraphs]

I'm going to this:

http://www.armadillocon.org/index.shtml

Anyone else around here planning on going? I have reserved a hotel but dang it is expensive, so if anyone wants to share, it'd be 125 buckaroos.

I am doing the writer's workshop with my revived fantasy, which I think will be alot of fun and hopefully I will get some good feedback, and have a chance to discuss what, if any, future it may have. I've done one of these before and got LOUSY feedback (this was with Tor editors and the editor I got was so not helpful, dammit) but that was years ago, a lifetime ago for me, and I have a firmer grip on what I want out of my writing life.

This is within driving distance, and the list of attendees looks good, and I see a few familiar names on there from the mystery world. So I will be optimistic.

So! I will obviously drive, so will have wheels, and can fetch from the airport even. I am all ready for an adventure! Join me!

I'm not kidding about the friendly cat. And he looooooves my bedroom. When I go away and come back, he whines and cries and loves all over me, and promptly races into my room to wallow all over my bed.

You should come meet them anyway. :)

I don't know if I'll be in Texas...might be offshore, and am also trying to plan a trip to Canada to see a dear friend who I haven't seen in a decade. So, we'll see. But if I'm in town, heck yeah I'm there!

Whee! My friend Anthony looks like he might be able to join me and share my room. I am sure I won't kill him--pretty positive. He may snore, not sure. LOL.

Ooo Canada! That would be a sweet treat!

That cat loves your room because when you are gone, he gets to claim it as his!

The door is firmly shut when I am gone. I will usually leave it open when I go, as it is cat-occupied, and roomie closes it at bedtime.

I really don't know why they both love sitting on my bed so much. Roomie has a perfectly good bed with perfectly good cat-on-bed-height windows, too.

They think you smell lovely!!!! :)

I think it's more gratitude that I'll slip them bits of steak on the fly when my vegetarian roomie isn't home.

Don't tell her I said that.
