If it's not too hard for you to get to Burlington, Mass. (about 30 minutes from Boston), July 17-20, come to Readercon! It's right up there with Wiscon in my try-never-to-miss list. Who can resist a program with titles like Snape, Gollum, and Other Moral Linchpins, or What Has It Got in Its Apocalypses?, or The Aesthetics of Online Magazines . . . not to mention, ahem, a solo talk by yrs trly: Return to Riverside? And guests like Geoff Ryman, Suzy McKee Charnas, Andy Duncan, Louise Marley, Farah Mendlesohn, Barry N. Malzberg, Kelly Link, Paul Park, Michaela Roessner, John Kessel, Michael Swanwick, Theodora Goss, John Clute, Nancy Werlin, and, well, us?*

There will also be an Interstitial Arts Town Meeting, open to all.

Hope to see you there! Honest. Please feel free to use this post's Comments to troll for rides and roommates.

*A plethora of my favorite LJ authors will also be there, like Elizabeth Bear & friends - but I figure if you're a fan of theirs you already read all about it from them....

I'm not doing my usual drive-commute this year; it turned out that I had enough Marriott Rewards points for a two-night stay (and free is significantly cheaper than renting a car & paying for gas), so I'll just take the #350 bus out on Friday.

(Also, I can't read that locked post; I did see [livejournal.com profile] penguinkye's post over on [livejournal.com profile] wiscon asking about roommate possibilities, and it looks like she's probably got that part of things set.)

Yup, it's looking good! May also have a ride. If not, I'll have a busride w/large bag, which is always amusing. XD

Um. Your shark icons. Make me happy. :o
