📚🦤I’m back from my 1st #Capclave in Washington D.C., where I survived the jet lag and harsh hotel lighting and had a lovely time! I was on the 🐈⬛Cats in SFF panel, the 🦕Underused Creatures panel, & my first 👁️Eye of Argon panel⚔️. Also did a reading of my apocalyptic story in @flashpointsf.bsky.social
@acwise.bsky.social Just noticed the reverse side of your postcard for Ballad of the Bone Road (that I look forward to reading). "Wish you were here darlin' xoxo Jimmy Valentine" Really fun to see that following your reading at #Capclave!
Thank you again to the #Capclave volunteers, participants, and panelists. The weekend went too quickly.
It wouldn’t be #capclave if I did not get a photo of myself with sartorially extraordinary @scottedelman.bsky.social
Fun to see #authors I know at #Capclave and meet new folx.
Full day of interesting panels ahead.

Have a blast at #Capclave everyone. I might sneak into bar con for a bit.
Are you coming to #Capclave this weekend? You might get to see me talk about cats! Or prophecies and chosen ones! Or writing across multiple genres! I am excited about the topics of the panels I'm on, is what I'm saying.
My program schedule for @capclave.bsky.social this weekend. Come to my reading to hear a new scene from the #WIP. I can't wait to see how it plays with an audience.

In about an hour or so I'll be doing a reading at #VICFA with Simone Snaith and Julie Day!
I think - I THINK - that #VICFA is still taking last minute registrations, so if you are sulking about missing #Capclave (that's me, I'm sulking) or just want to see a reading....you should have time to join.
No rest for the wicked! I'll be at @capclave.bsky.social this weekend. I will be appearing on many panels! If you're in the DC area, come on by! Details about the con here:

Had an awesome time at #Capclave this weekend.

I had a great time running the Speculative Poetry Workshop at #Capclave. The participants wrote and read scifaikus, cinquains, and prose poems. What a thrill to experience all that creativity!
"Music as Muse" panel at #Capclave included the phenomenal Sheree Renee Thomas. It was wonderful to learn the many ways that music around the world has inspired and been incorporated into speculative poetry and SFF prose.
Public post with my program schedule for this weekend. Capclave's a great little convention. Come out and join us!

Capclave staffers standing behind the table. The front of the table is a white table drape with Capclave dodo and the caption "Capclave where reading is not extinct." The usual flyers, merch links, and dodos are on the table. Remember Capclave is listed under our parent organization's name, the Washington Science Fiction Association Hall C section 404
All set up for #AwesomeCon in our hometown of Washington DC.

Two book conventions this weekend, and now I have two dozen more books on my wishlist and STILL managed to spend $175 on the must-have-right-now books. #BudgetFail #FIYAHCON #Capclave
