I'm back from Norwescon. I had a good time and did a lot that I thought was worthwhile. At a lot of cons, I often find myself with a lot of dead time between events I want to go to, but this time there was less of that and I managed to find things to do between events. That included some writing, but what with all the distractions and the lack of a computer, I didn't meet my goal either day. (Sunday, of course, is a day of rest.)
Highlights: the art show tour with Alan Clark, dinner at the new Thai restaurant across the street from the hotel, learning William Gibson's secret of writing via Eileen Gunn.
I went to several writing panels and that left me with a lot to think about, primarily in the areas of editing and figuring out what to do with the novel after I get it done. I also came away with two half-ideas for stories, which I will refer to with the code-names "Play" and "Running." More on them later if I can move them past the half-baked stage.
