I just wrenched the hell out of my shoulder stopping myself from falling down a spiral staircase.

Dragon*Con app is in, although we really have no idea of our schedule for the next year. But yay me, getting it done.

Yay, TEDWomen contest app in.

Yay, another media contact re: Dogboy & Justine.

Yay, a contract I sent out TWO MONTHS AGO, was finally received, I got paid, announcement possible soon.

I'm going to get to see the new Harry Potter movie in the UK! THis is sort of weird and exciting, because it once would have been the biggest thing ever for me, and now less so, not because I don't still love Harry Potter (although my relationship has changed with it over time), but because so many big, weird symbolic things happen in my life all the time now.

Oh "these glittery, brittle bonds."

Latest set of arguments in Prop 8 case to be televised.

A tale of two salons.

Tomorrow: CARDIFF.

It's super good, in that the academic panels are run by an actual separate academic conference that is then given space in different relevant fan tracks -- so you have real academic cred in having your work accepted and a big audience of enthusiastic fans. It's super good.

Okay, that sounds AWESOME. I'll do some research on it and then probably hit you up for advice on pitching things to them.

They usually put out a CFP with the topic themes for the year, but take submissions outside those topics as well. I forget when I usually see it though.
