So I got some hot-tub time in this morning before checking out of the hotel, which was clearly the icing on a very pleasurable Apollocon weekend.<\/p>\n

I really enjoyed hanging out and talking with old friends and all the extended members of this weird clan of ours. I could hardly go down a hall without finding someone I wanted to chat with. It was kind of like the dorms, but with more beer.<\/p>\n

\nThis is Patrice Sarath<\/a> reading from her exciting new novel Gordath Wood<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n


\nMartha Wells reading from her new-yet-unpublished novel. Which makes those of us lucky enough to be at the reading specialer than you.<\/p>\n

Just to drop a few more names and sweeten folks’ vanity googling I just want to say that I enjoyed the face time I got with Joe Picacio (as impressive a panelist as he is an artist), J. M.

Campbell (a man among men), and Laurence Person (a rising star who we are all very proud of). <\/p>\n
