Totally off topic here, and I apologize. You're a Utah writer, I'm a Utah writer (and a friend of Paul and Ken). We ought to friend each other, yah? :) I'm pretty liberal on a lot of issues, conservative on lots of others, so posts about conservatism don't bug me, even if I disagree.

Back on topic: I'm a public school graduate and I think I turned out alright. However, I was in mostly honors courses, and I took a very active part in my own learning. I suspect I'm in the minority on that last part.

We should TOTALLY friend each other! *does so* And if you're friends with Paul and Ken, does that mean you live in the West/South Jordan area? Because if you do, we should get together for coffee some time. :)

Are you going to CONduit?

I live closer to Midvale, but that's not very far from you. At least, I can get to Ken's place in about 10 minutes on a non-traffic day.

Sadly, no conduit for me. I have a standing commitment to do WisCon every year (http://www.wiscon.info if you're curious). But with how costly it's getting to go to Madison every year, I may skip it next year and stay for CONduit. And I do every other Utah con, so I'm sure I'll see you at something.

Are you coming to MountainCon maybe? Or do you like anime? Because I think I'm going to go to Anime Banzai this year, just for fun.

Oh, yes, I'll be at MountainCon, but I don't do anime. And Midvale is really close to me too. Yay!

Oh great! I'll see you at MountainCon! :) I'll have a table again this year, I think, as I did well sales-wise last MC and had a lot of fun running the table.

Do you attend LTUE as well?

Wouldn't miss it! You know, we probably know each other, at least in passing...

Yeah I was thinking that maybe we do, too.

This is my picture in the icon. Do I look familiar to you?

... vaguely familiar?

I don't have a photo of me, I don't think. I don't photograph well, and I'm the family picture-taker, so we don't have many of me in any case.

We have probably seen each other around for sure :). I'm usually hanging out with Paul and Patrick or with Rebecca Shelley. I've got really long brown hair that's usually pulled back or messily flowing all around my face , and I'm usually wearing a really long dress and clunky self-made jewelry. Donno if that helps.

D'oh! I just noticed that your name is Joselle. Would be be Joselle Vanderhooft (apologies if I butchered the spelling)? Because, yeah! I know you!

I'm Julie Frost. I don't know if the name will ring a bell. :)

LOL I should've just said my name is JoSelle (you got it right, but for the capital S which is no big deal).

Mmh. Julie. Yes, yes it does. But I'm not sure why. Are you married to a fella named Bruce? And/or did you lead the workshop at LTUE on weather and geography in world-building?

No, my Hubby doesn't come to Cons (we kind of freak him out a little, I think. Hee). I wasn't on any panels at LTUE, but I was on the Firefly panel and one other (how to get published, I think--I had the spreadsheet) at MountainCon last year and hung around with Ken, Dan, Paul, and Eric a lot there.

(hehehhe)

Hmmmm. OK, then I must have seen you at the publishing panel as I didn't attend the one on Firefly. I'm not recalling a spread sheet though... but it has been several months, so maybe I'm just forgetful.
