WFC and Nebula thinking
Heading on down in a few hours, here.
I've an idea that this is one con that is mainly going to be happening in the lounges and around the pool and in the bars. From what I can gather, Neil Gaiman's eager fans bought up most of the 1000 possible memberships earlier in the year, months before the writer community habitually stirs itself to scrape together membership costs. So many writers are just showing up.
Anyway, looking forward to seeing many folks in person who I usually only see in phosphor form.
Then it's back to work, and also to think about Nebula nominations. So far, though it's been a terrific year for good books, Jo Walton's Among Others is still at the top of my list. For YA, this is going to be even tougher . . . the latest good read is Nnedi Odorafor's Akata Witch.
