As everyone makes their August plans, I wish to remind you to consider attending
Pi-Con! Pi-Con is a weekend-long celebration of science fiction and other fan interests - there's webcomics, science, costuming, gaming, larping, filk, lifestyle, and lots more. This year, it's happening August 21-23 in Enfield, CT right off 91, just south of the MA border.
Register today! This year will feature Author Guest of Honor
Mary Doria Russell (award winning author of The Sparrow and Children of God), Webcomic Guest of Honor
Jeffrey Rowland (creator of Wigu, Overcompensating, and the awesome t-shirt site Topatoco), and Guest of Awesome
Genevieve Iseult Eldredge. We will also see the return of our video game room, two full rooms of all day board/card/table top gaming, many favorite panels and events including the panel in the pool, and the new addition of Filk programming! There will also be performances by our local Rocky Horror and Repo casts (
The Come Again Players and
Genetic Imperfection)
