LunaCy

Just got back from LunaCon. It was fun, despite programming's total disorganization, and the fact that the Masquerade got thrown together at the last minute, was in far too small a room, and never did make it into the printed schedule. My panels went well, even the one Friday at 4:00 where I was the only panelist who showed up

Glad you had a good time. My own con-going won't be until August, and I'm looking forward to it: one weekend at the worldcon, the next at the local affair.

Yea for making table fees.

I heard from others that the art show was rather small this year or sparsely populated.

The Masquerade sounds like a total cock-up and I await to hear what happened there.

The art show had a tiny bit of empty space; I think it was part of a table and at least one panel. Several artists didn't come in until Saturday, so it looked a lot emptier before that. A lot of familiar artists, plus some very promising newbies. I was particularly taken with the steampunky shadow boxes.

The masquerade was apparently an afterthought; rumor has it that it got dumped on someone with less than a month to go. There were a total of eight entrants, counting the young fans (a pair of tiny twins in fire/water princess outfits). All were high quality, there just weren't very many of them. The room (a third of the downstairs ballroom; the art show had the other two thirds) was standing room only; I'm told a lot of potential audience members left because there were no more seats. So yeah, total cock-up.
