The launch was great, the food from the banquet divine. My co-panellists were often wittier and more interesting than myself, but there was no competition (that they knew of...)
I launched Voices, with much help, and sold around 26 copies of the book.

tombicknell managed to drink himself into a state of inebriation and after admiring one of the many adorable infants at the con, asked if we could 'have one'. (I don't think he remembers).The plane flight home was also delayed - go budget airlines - and I managed to get home without incident, before I passed out from lack of sleep.
All in all, I didn't die, I didn't kill anyone and I didn't manage to make too much of a fool out of myself. Successful Con!

This one, though, has a glint in her eye:

Babies are overrated. They turn into toddlers, then develop MOUTH at age 10, and it's all downhill from there. That is, unless they turn into wonderful young adults with a flair for geekdom and a good heart. It's a crap shoot.
It was good to see you again kiddo *hugs*
Sure was! Email me the piccie?
