WorldCon Reflections

In August I was in Anaheim, California (USA) as part of the World Science Fiction Convention. It was wonderful and life affirming to be around so many people so curious about the world.

I attended filking for the first time, and most nights. There’s something so powerful about making music together and I learned a lot just looking at how different people play guitar! I need to figure out how to get

Liz’s Quotes

“Life is always going to be a series of ouch-making moments, and the question was, was I going to go all fetal position, or was I going to woman up? I went into fetal position on the bed to think about this. Fetal position turned out to be very comfortable.”
― Maureen Johnson, The Madness Underneath

“Like the pain of a bad wound, the effect of a deep shock takes some while to be felt. When a child is told, for the first time in his life, that a person he has known is dead, although he does not disbelieve it, he may well fail to comprehend it and later ask--perhaps more than once--where the dead person is and when he is coming back.”
― Richard Adams, Watership Down
