A shorthaired brunette white woman with dyed purple hair shot from above. She is wearing glasses, a black cardigan, a black t-shirt, clear loop earplugs on a cord, and a namebadge on a lanyard.
I've gushed elsewhere, but I must thank @britfantasysoc.bsky.social volunteers and redcloaks for putting #Fantasycon2024 together, as well as the warm welcome back from old friends and new in the community. It may not have been my first con post-COVID, but this is the one where I felt at home again.

Back from a great #Fantasycon2024 and after an awful week it was very much needed. Thanks to all the organisers for doing a stellar job, and to my fellow panellists for fascinating conversation. Now to sit and overthink everything I said during a panel.

Totally well-deserved, I am not biased in this at all.

I keep thinking someone is watching football at #Fantasycon2024 because the lift button chime sounds exactly like a referee’s whistle.

Picture of the frontage of Waterstones Chester in the Rows, a faux Tudor row of shops on the upper level of the high street. Black beams, white plaster and balustrades.
A picture of my book The German Messenger depicting a woman in a red coat wheeling a bicycle in front of the Liver building, Liverpool. Front out on the shelf in Waterstones Chester.
And because it’s #BookshopDay I visited Waterstones Chester during #Fantasycon2024 and they had a copy of The German Messenger!
It would be lovely is someone went home with that book today.

On my way back to #Fantasycon2024 in Chester (and strangely posting this at Rock Ferry station again). I’m on a panel about Kindness and Respect in Writing at 3pm.
But it’s also Bookshop day so I’ll be making a trip to Waterstones Chester at some point.

Re-upping this. Just a heads up that doing a con with a migraine for me means minimal caffeine, if any. Buds, I am s-t-r-u-g-g-l-i-n-g to hold off until tomorrow. #fantasycon #fantasycon2024

A picture showing the Rock Ferry platform sign in front of the rising walkway to cross platforms. A bright blue sky with a white fluffy cloud and on the platform there is a yellow salt bucket.
On my way to #Fantasycon2024 on a train through sunny Wirral. (As I have no car rn!)

Gallus anthology cover. Top left corner, the title "Gallus" in bold lettering, underneath a handwritten subtitle, "A Glasgow SF Writers' Circle Anthology". "lives up to its name with style and swagger" a quote from Ken Macleod in the top right corner, beneath that "A joy to read" quote from Eliza Chan. Centre, a woman with long red hair and a multicoloured cape. She has bell earrings and a ring on her finger. A fish and bird float hear her hand and everything swirls in the wind. Featured authors text: "Hal Duncan, Cameron Johnston, Annabel Campbell, Ruth EJ Booth, and many more". Edited by E.M. Faulds, Brian M. Milton, & Neil Williamson text is at the bottom centre.
By now, those heading to #Fantasycon should be opening their free book bags. Did you get a copy of our latest anthology #Gallus in yours? Let us know.

First day of #FantasyCon2024 had a good night sleep, the hotel is lovely. Minor hiccup with the air con not working on our floor, but the staff very kindly supplied us with fans to cool the room down for the baby.

#Fantasycon2024 folk, if you're wondering who designed that fabulous map, it was our own Jenni Coutts! Check out this thread for photos from the design process.

The Fantasycon ground floor map, embelishes with a witch, a dragon, a phoenix, a kraken, hobbits and more.
A moment of appreciation for the #Fantasycon2024 map. I don't know who the designer is, but they understood the assignment.
