The World Fantasy Convention is in DC this year, and Fjordykins is going to that. So I will visit Fj0rd and stalk the convention hotel for assorted authorsThat'll be amazing! I went to the World Sci Fi Con this year in London and it was good, but I imagine the American ones get a lot going on, and huuuge names going, right? Guests of honour? =D Oh man, you're going to be such a creeper have so much fun! I assume there will be pictures of you guys after said event? I'm probably not actually going to the Con itself. >_> There are a few of the top-list authors going (Guy Gavriel Kay is the guest of honor!!), but less than I would have expected, and the price of the tickets is kind of ridiculous. And I'd only be able to go on the weekend days, not all four days. But I will still have much much fun with Fj0rd though! There will of course be pictures.

Just was looking on the website and am a bit surprised for the ticket price, but I'm sure the talks will be excellent. Fair enough, I kind of forgot or maybe didn't know you lived in that roundabout area?! MAYBE? What do you plan on getting up to, or are you playing it by ear? I'm also still flailing madly about Nano, but am genuinely excited for yours xD Will you be posting excerpts as you go along?

There's one panel on animals in fantasy with Garth Nix <3 I'm almost considering going for that alone. XD And yes, I live around DC right now. I could have just not mentioned it, I'm still in the habit of not telling Internet friends where I live. (But! I will not be here much longer! I am officially moving back to North Carolina at the end of November =D) We just made this plan yesterday/today. So I'm not sure what we'll be up to >_> And thank you!! ^__^ sure, I probably will.

I felt like we might have chatted about it IRL, but that was about NC, hence why I might be confusssed. I have not spoken to you for quite some time after all xD How come you were in DC? Grad school? I don't know what you are doing with your life these days, Zy! Well, hope you guys have a lot of fun :3

I was looking for a job back then, found a job in DC, and moved up. Now I'm moving back (and moving in with my boyfriend)(I'm very giddy about this). What is your life like these days? Thanks!

Yay, that's so exciting =D How long have you guys been together, if you don't mind me asking? And have you found a job to move to in NC, or are you going to hope for the best once you get there? Uh, on my second go at uni, made it to second year this time so xD That's good. I was working but I had to stop because of the stupid amount of reading I have to do this year agh! Living with my boyfriend..with my family. It's kind of hectic, but he's an actor and this way he gets to take time of work to audition and do shows where he couldn't before. *shrugs*

So for a while there, we were going "nope, we are definitely not dating. We are totally going to see other people any day now." Then about a year ago we both agreed, "Yeah, we're dating." XD and I have found a job! Good luck with uni! And many congratulations on the second year. No fun that you have so much reading, though. And that living situation does indeed sound kind of hectic. 0_0 I'm glad it's working out, though! What are you studying?
