4th Street Fantasy Convention

4th Street Fantasy Convention
Sitting in on a talk/interview with Lois McMaster Bujold at #4thStreetFantasy and have suddenly realized I appearently skipped several of the middle books in the Vorkosigan Series need to check the bookcases when I get home.
#Minneapolis Headed to #4thStreetFantasy this afternoon. Say hi if we run into each other! Also: meals are good, as is caffeine. https://4thstreetfantasy.com/
4th Street Fantasy Convention

4th Street Fantasy Convention
One day and a wake-up until Michelle & I head west for #4thStreetFantasy in Minneapolis. Will we see you there?
Belatedly and delightedly watching the British Library's panel for the exhibit "Journeys to the Land of Faerie"; and in the midst of a much more important set of remarks, Ellen Kushner uttered the classic phrase from Fourth Street, "But that's a different panel."

@rdonoghue the last panel of #4thstreetfantasy two weekends back was about maps, and my friend @Clundoff lobbied successfully to get me on the panel, because boy do I have opinions and knowledge about maps :)

Well, #4thStreetFantasy has wrapped up for another year, and at least from where I was sitting, it sure seems to have gone smoothly. I'm sure there were bumps, because conventions always have some, but none cascaded into any big/visible problems. It was a very good time.

And now everyone is wandering around in cheerful conversation, stuffing leftover snacks from the con suite into their various bags, while I try to /stop/ thinking about transcription again. Aheh.

#4thStreetFantasy Quick, someone mention Rosemary Kirstein, whose Steerswoman series is about maps and mapmakers, how knowledge is preserved and the politics thereof!
This year's "But That's Another Panel"--always the last panel of #4thstreetfantasy , determined by discussions in earlier ones--is "Map + Territory," and I'm transcriber again, so... See you all on the other side.
On this Caroline Stevermer and Patricia Wrede panel, love is given to the work of @GCogman and @stephanieburgis #4thstreetfantasy
