Glasgow 2024, A Worldcon for Our Futures
Jul. 15th, 2024 06:16 pmI have just been informed via email that I will not be on any programming for the 2024 Worldcon. Based on a quick review of my records, this will be the first convention since Loncon 3 in 2014 I've attended that I've not been on programming. Wow!
To be clear, I'm not in the least disappointed. Although it's nice to be on panels, being on panels requires one to be "on" - to be on time, to have done some research, and to, well, sing for one's supper. Having a chance to just sit in the audience and enjoy the show will be a nice change of pace. Also, my publisher will be there and hopefully on a panel or two, so I'll be able to spell him at his dealer's table.
