Greetings from the final meeting of #nwc48! This is our post-con meeting where we go over our internal “onions and roses” - what didn’t work and needs to be improved, and what worked well. If you’d like to let us know what you thought, you can do so here: https://www.norwescon.org/about/feedback/

Personal laptop sticker update. “You Are Beautiful“ I got from a friend at Norwescon; “Trekkies Against Fascism” I ordered along with a matching t-shirt from here: https://willburrowsart.com / https://bsky.app/profile/reforest-kelley.bsky.social

I've posted my photos from Norwescon to Flickr; a mix of iPhone and Nikon shots, plus a select few of me from other people. This was my first time bringing my "real" camera along in a few years, and while I only brought it out a little bit, I'm glad I did.

Norwescon 48

April 2–5, 2026, in SeaTac, WA. My first time bringing my "real" camera to con in a few years; only brought it out a little bit, but it was nice to have it along again. This is a mix of my iPhone and Nikon shots, plus a few shots of me from other people.

Sunday at #norwescon. Thank you to our Sunday cosplayers for sharing their creativity with us. #nwc48 is done!

Michael Hanscom Apr 6

Sunday of Norwescon is the final day, where I always exist in a liminal state, simultaneously “why can’t life always be like this?” and “dear God I need to sleep in my own bed!”. Packed up my room and spent the day alternating between final day things (like site updates and video archiving) and wandering around to find people and say goodbye. Attended closing ceremonies in the afternoon, and then caught a ride home, where it was very nice to have a normal dinner, reasonable bedtime, and my own bed to sleep in.
