LepreCon 41, Phoenix, AZ I hadn’t been planning to attend LepreCon 41 this year. LepreCon is often the only con I attend but I’m usually asked to be on program. For some reason, most of the usual guests were not there this year. The convention made a late add of… Continue reading
This turned out to be a rough week for writing. I had a strong surge toward the end of the week, but not as much progress as I should have. I a managed 10559 words for the week, which is only 59 over target, despite having one day of over… Continue reading
