Now, y'all have heard me do a bit of squealing about this before, but since I have new information to share, and because it is awesome, it's time for me to remind you that I'm going to be appearing at Duckon 2009 as their Filk Guest of Honor. This is a fabulous enough thing that I'm actually planning to spare the Duckon concom when my army of plague-bearing dinosaurs conquers this puny planet in my name. See how simple it is to buy yourself salvation? Some things, money can't buy. For everything else, there's Evil MastermindCard.
Duckon is in Naperville, Illinois, which is approximately twenty-five miles outside of Chicago -- far enough that we're unlikely to get devoured by the radioactive hamsters almost guaranteed to arise when you put me and Author Guest of Honor Jim Butcher in the same place, but might still be able to work in a dinner run at Buddy's, home of the all-you-can-eat fried chicken OF THE GODS. Mmmmmmm. Fried gods. Who else is going to be in that hotel? Who knows?!? I'll be announcing the other guests -- such as Special Guest of Honor Shannon K. Butcher -- as they're announced. Because sometimes I'm just nice that way. Personally, I'm just waiting to hear who the Mad Scientist Guest of Honor will be. Oh, Dr. Brundle...
The convention will be running from June 12th-14th, 2009, and I'll be providing more information as I get it. Today's helpful and informative post is designed to point out that early pre-reg is available now from the Duckon website, but that it won't last much longer. The current pre-reg rate of $30 is available only through June 30th; once we hit July 1st, it jumps to $40. Registering now could save you ten dollars! If you have ten dollars, you can take me to Starbucks! Register now. Beat the rush.
I will definitely have Red Roses and Dead Things by Duckon (we're aiming for a Conflikt release), and there's a chance, depending on how things go, that I will also have Rosemary and Rue. Also, if I have my first novel in hand at a convention where Jim-frikkin'-Butcher is the Author Guest of Honor, I may fall off my incredibly swanky gradient orange and black Mary Jane heels.
Hope to see you there!
