Boskone!
I had a great time at Boskone this year. Chris was on a bunch of panels, including a fabulous digital art discussion with Stephan Martiniere, Dave Seeley, and Alan Beck. I had terrific conversations with Dani Kollin (co-author of the forthcoming Unincorporated Man[ordered]), Alisa Kwitney Sheckley (Robert Sheckley’s daughter!OMG!), and Rosemary Kirstein (author of the fabulous Steerswoman series), whom I’ve been looking forward to meeting for years.
Cons are always so inspiring. I started two new short stories this weekend, and even wrote a thousand words or so on Hack. I find it tough to balance short story effort against novel effort – finishing a short story is quck gratification, but the novel won’t write itself. I guess I’m doing all right as long as I’m writing.
