jenwrites instead of reading, led one panel, and served on two panels. The one I led meandered somewhat, but then the topic wasn't entirely conducive to a directed discussion, and since the audience seemed engaged, I let it meander. The other two went well; it was nice to have a good long time to recover between them. I think better when I have recovery time.Top Ten (Well, First Ten to come to mind) Memories of Readercon 18:
1. Yummy, yummy fried catfish at Redbones with
veejane. And at last delivering unto her the fourth series of Blake's 7.2. Two Thai ice teas in a row will wake you up. For almost two hours.
3. The Thursday evening start date made the whole con seem a lot longer than it was. Friday felt like Saturday.
4. Korean barbecue! Which we found without resorting to calling up
ceciliatan on her cell phone.5. ZOMGWTF! The Spiderwick movie has a preview and everything! Freaky, dude. [hands flask to
blackholly]6. I seem to have developed a habit of sorting a writer's output into thematic or technique-oriented piles when I've read a lot of it in a row.
7. No, I do not want to play Mafia. Ya'll have fun, though.
8. No one ever believes that Laura Kinsale's plots are real.
9. Hot sticker-on-girl action!
10. Talking about the half-book submission to other writers, and having them understand.
