No. More. Schedule changes! Please, please, please. No more, no more. I promise I’ll be good. *whimper*
So yeah, D*C is upon us. dude_the is here, although his plane was massively delayed due to mechanical problems, and after he finally got to ATL, they made all the passengers on his plane sit and wait after they’d touched down because of the lightning. The poor guy didn’t get in until after 1AM.
Had my own bout of transportation woes this morning. The MARTA was also experiencing some mechanical difficulties, and my train, when it finally arrived, was quite late. And unairconditioned.
The convention hasn’t even begun and my eyes feel ready to sear themselves free of my skull. Ugh. Lotso coffee most commenceth.
In less complainy news:
This year, the Daily Dragon is launching a podcast to give con-goers another way to get up-to-date Dragon*Con news during the convention. Stephen Eley, of Escape Pod (escapepodcast), will bring you news, highlights, and his own brand of humor and insight every day.
The first, pre-con podcast for Thursday is now up for download.
:hugs: Look on the bright side; at least you can *go* to Dragon*Con!!
Very true. And I’m way excited about it! Just also exhausted, nervous, and overworked.
Have fun! Can’t wait to hear all your stories! 😀
Thanks, Maggie! Any chance you’ll be heading out to Dragon*Con one of these years?
Well, it’ll either be when I’m rich and famous, or when I get an invitation with a plane ticket inside it. Heh. Heh. 😉
Have fun!
One day we will get to go to D*C. One day…
Is there a place that maintains a consolidated updated online schedule or do I just need to update my hard-copy from the Daily Dragon.
Err, it’s obviously too late now, but the Daily Dragon‘s website mirrors the hard copy schedule updates and frequently publishes them beforehand. Time permitting, I post them online as I get them instead of having to wait for the next paper issue to go to press.
thanks!
I hope everything at Dragoncon went swimmingly! Also wanted to tell you thanks for your comments on my _Feeding Malachi_ query letter. I wrote you back, but the email returned as “blocked” (I probably used some combination of words that accidentally triggered your spam filter.) I sent it again via another address, but I’m not sure it went through. Anyway, I just wanted to say thanks bunches. You were helpful.
Re: thanks!
I’m so glad you found something of use in my note. Good luck with your query and book!
It was great to meet you at the Con, Eugie. You were as ravishing as always, natch.
Thanks so much for popping up to introduce yourself! I always love meeting face-to-face the folks I get to know by their words on the screen
