I'm going to IRELAND!

...so yeah. This is going to be one of those moments where Seanan Is Not Cool, Yo. So:

I'M GOING TO IRELAND YOU GUYS!!!!!!!!

Ahem.

I am pleased to announce that Dublin has won their bid for the 2014 Eurocon, to be called "ShamroKon." It will be held the week after the London WorldCon, thus allowing anyone with extra vacation time to do two awesome conventions for the price of one. And guess who one of their Guests of Honor is?

Oh, you're all good guessers.

So I'm going to Ireland! For only the second time ever, and for the first time in well over ten years. I am like, super-excited, and totally honored, and this is going to be the best! Convention! EVER!!!!!!!

More information to come, but mark your calendars now!

I left you a comment full of froth, but LJ ated it.

Short version, have a wonderful time and - while I am sure you have all the offers in the world - in the unlikely event you need tips on the most awesome bits of Ireland I grew up there, lived in 5 cities in Ireland and studied Heritage and Cultural management at college so if you need any info, just hit me up.

Ooooooo, awesome.

I'll probably ask for suggestions when we get closer to time, since if I do it right now, I'll forget.
