Ducks. I like ducks!

So -- as folks have probably heard me burbling about -- I'm going to be the Filk Guest of Honor at next year's Duckon (2009). This is ginormously exciting to me. I mean, I don't get many opportunities to hit that part of the country, and Red Roses and Dead Things will be finished by then, and there's even a chance I'll have put my hands on Rosemary and Rue, and and and and. Squeal! Pardon me while I sit and vibrate.

Also enormously exciting: Jim Butcher is going to be the Literary Guest of Honor. Jim Butcher! Y'know, that dude who writes in my genre and who I keep getting compared to? Him. I've never actually met him before, so this is going to be super-fun. I've never been to a Duckon before, and I'm really looking forward to it. Everybody should come and join the party. (I'll burble about it more as we get closer to the convention, just like I'm going to spend a lot of time burbling about Conflikt as we get closer to the convention. I am a simple soul who loves cons and gets hugely jazzed about being a guest.)

SQUEE.

I'm planning to go to Duckon next year - I'd been thinking off and on about going, and when I found out you were going to be there, that made the decision for me. I don't get to travel much, so a chance to a meet an LJ friend who lives on the far side of the country is not to be passed up.

Awesome!

It'll be super-cool to finally meet you!
