The Con of Uncle Christo



Consonance was a resounding success. Photos and con report are available here.

As expected, I enjoyed spending time with Puzzlebox, Seanan and her clones, Kristoph and Margaret, The Bohnhoffs, Callie, and everyone else at the con. The guests of honor, Bill and Gretchen Roper, were wonderful, as were the special guests Marty Fabish and Peter Beagle. But for me, the highlight of the convention was meeting and spending time talking with international guest Chris Conway. He surprised us all in many wonderful ways.

Seanan's recording sessions went extremely well. I have to admit, I was skeptical that we'd be able to finish the assigned tasks in the time allotted. But everything happened quickly and efficiently, thanks to Stoph's skill as an engineer and producer. I really enjoyed working with him, and hope I'll get the chance work with him again soon.

It was also a nice surprise to see the people from the Filk Film Project again. I'm glad they decided to come to Consonance. They're neat people, and I'm looking forward to seeing what they come up with.

Next up, FilKONtario in April. Can't wait!

It was great to see you, if only very briefly. Kids and all that...

Ah, and just for clarity's sake, the Witches' Dance art was donated by me, as the cover artist. I had originally offered it to Cindy's estate if it would have helped with expenses, but Dr. James felt Cindy would have like it going to Interfilk. :)

Oh, thanks! I was wondering whose drawing it was. Updating caption now.
