Was a great time:
Great time was had by . . . well, by us, anyway, but presumably, hopefully, by others as well (tweetlink below).
Zooming in to share a digital stage with Alma Katsu, Paul Tremblay, and Grady Hendrix. The link here goes to Facebook, I believe, which I’m not on, so . . . maybe I won’t see this? But? I’m there, so don’t need to watch, can just talk with Grady and Paul and Alma, and any
After some particularly poor planning left me eating a random protein bar for breakfast and about twelve almonds for lunch, I immediately, upon checking into my hotel, ranged out and lucked onto . . .

So cool to be there again. Last time I was there I wasn’t just signing a cart of Mongrels, I was wearing a Mongrels shirt: Looks like I also had more hair on the sides of my head then too. Okay, and darker hair. The last couple years, man, the aliens come every night while
Hangout session’s soon, here (http://bit.ly/SGJonesR4P2019), and there’s also Meet the Authors and the main page. And of course ye olde poster:
Over on YouTube: ( rest of the ReaderCon pics &etc over here )
I’ve been there before, some three or four times, and it’s always been nothing but a ball, but being a GoH (thanks, Rose Fox!), that was completely different. Not only was my schedule super-super packed: But I of course had a handler, a chaperone, Nightwing Whiteshade, who . . . rememberer years and years back,

FINALLY saw Breakfast Club on the big screen last night. Was a-a-a-amazing. Didn’t see Pretty in Pink—actually, I only saw that one last year, on DVD—am not catching Ferris Buehler (never really got into that one, except for the principle getting the Buford T. Justice treatment throughout), and, would have caught Weird Science, but I
Man, why do I ever miss one of these? They’re always the best time of the year. And, as usual, I’m no picture-snapper, have to rely on what others post. And, this time, instead of snabbing pics from around and then trying (and failing) to cite those who actually deserve picture-credit, I’ll just link what
Two words I don’t usually put together, true.
