It’s been since 2010, but this year, I’m going to Penguicon<\/a>! I haven’t always been able to make it, but I’ve been attending off and on since Penguicon 2.0<\/a> in 2004.  I’ve posted<\/a> a few times<\/a> about it. Pictures<\/a>, too.<\/p>\n

This year, I’m going purely as a fan of things technical and fictiony. I’m hoping to meet up with old friends and re-connect, meet new friends, and learn a bunch of stuff that I didn’t know before. I’m not scheduled to speak on any panels this year, and I won’t be doing much advertising.<\/p>\n

Okay, maybe I’ll talk up Two Vampires<\/a> a little bit.  And the upcoming Adam’s Name novella. And the rewrite of the Remembrance.  The thing is, and this is hard for me to admit, I’m really proud of these projects. I’m proud of finishing them, and I’m proud of not giving up on the work Nikki and I are doing. I’m excited about them, too. I’m hoping to get over some of my social anxiety and feeling of being a pretender, and just share my excitement<\/em>.<\/p>\n

If you see me wandering into or out of a panel – this year I’ll be focusing a lot on the technical ones – carrying my Decepticon notebook<\/a>, come up and say hi. Share with me what you’re excited about. Don’t be offended if I ask you to slow down; you’ve hooked me and I’m taking notes.<\/p>\n

That excitement is my favorite part of Penguicon. This year, instead of leaving it in Southfield on Sunday, I want to take it home with me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
