Last weekend were both Capclave and Fiyahcon. I optimistically signed up for both, since virtual con, not too expensive, why not? I ended up having to go into work Sunday morning and had a meeting Sunday afternoon, and what with juggling all of that I didn't see much of either con, but they both seemed like well-organized and fun events. I finished second in the Capclave trivia contest, and mostly it was just a nice, small scale fancon with a bunch of people I know from the East Coast con scene, an opportunity to see people I only see every year or two at Philcon or Balticon. Fiyahcon was marked by a phenomenal program of diverse, thoughtful writers and fans getting an opportunity to talk about things besides how diverse they are, and I hope I'll find time to watch some of the archived panels I missed.
This weekend was Fanworks con, which I got to spend a lot more time at because it wasn't competing against anything. I again finished second in trivia. :P I premiered two vids (previously posted), massively enjoyed chatting in discord through a bunch of the vidshows, and enjoyed several of the panels and fan games. I also took advantage of the con from home thing, watching vidshows from my couch in pajamas, baking an apple cake while watching a vidshow, taking breaks for myself and to catch up on laundry and dishes. It was a really good time, though still not as good as the in person experience. This entry was originally posted at https://seekingferret.dreamwidth.org/359013.html.
