Dragon Con 2013: The Good, the Bad, and the…Waffles?

*Twitch*Twitch*Twitch* Oops! You weren’t supposed to see the traditional post-Dragon Con Dead Bug Routine. But this Dragon Con was so much more than usual–more people, more lines, more panels… Did I mention MORE PEOPLE? Unofficial estimates put...

Dragon Time!

It’s almost here! Dragon Con starts Friday, and I can’t wait to party! Er, I can’t wait to take part in the many wonderful panels assigned to me. Seriously, they are wonderful. As are the parties, and the parades, and the costumes, and the concerts, and all the rest....

My Balticon Schedule

Balticon is this weekend—and I have schedule. Sort of. We’re talking Balticon, after all. Plans and schedules tend to be (ahem) fluid. The one thing you can be sure of is a lot of fun. So if you happen to be in the vicinity of Hunt Valley, Maryland, this weekend, I...
