Tentative Convention Schedule 2008

[mmerriam]

After revewing the local SF/F/H conventions and a few of the regional ones, it looks like I'll be at Minicon, 4th Street Fantasy, and CONvergence in 2008, with the possibility of adding Diversicon because I keep meaning to go, and maybe Con of the North to get my gaming fix.

I think I'm going to pass on World Fantasy Convention until 2010 in Columbus, OH, unless I end up with a burning professional need to go to WFC before then. Who knows when, if, or ever I'll be attending Worldcon.

ETA:There is still a possibility that we might go to WFC 2008 in Calgary. careswen and I are going to talk about it after Christmas and decide then.

Convivial 3. Really. Is awesome.

If you say it is awesome, I believe you. I'll give it some thought.

*dismayed* That long?!?!? *withdrawal symptoms setting in*

Come to Minicon!

[retrobabble.livejournal.com]

If I can, I will. I will prolly be attending 2009 as it's an hour away. I have some day job travel in there too. Missed you both something fierce.

Somehow, he got the idea that we had decided not to go to WFC in Calgary in 2008. Silly man. We were considering passing, depending on financial status, but it's still very much a possibility. I'm still holding out hope.

[retrobabble.livejournal.com]

See. I should have talked to you. :) I'll keep my fingers crossed for all of us.

So yes, Calgary 2008 is still on the table. We're going to assess it after Christmas!

I will keep my fingers crossed, and for me as well. Mind you, if all else fails, I can make my own BajaManitobaCon, can't I? ;)

WFC is going to be in Columbus in 2010? Awesome!

I noticed Marscon is not on that list. Just curious why. I was thinking of attending this year, but I have not been in the past. I'd love to hear both good and bad aboutit before I make the investment.

It's nothing against Marscon, it's just that I can only afford to do so many Cons a year and I get most of my media fandom geek on at CONvergence!

Oh, and I meant to tell you that this will be Marscon's 10th anniversary year, so they probably will put on a great con!
