Hello everyone,
Good news, the 3 fans that were in danger found good shelter and are all right. We didn't need to make the run.

I am happy to say that FenCon II in Dallas was excellent, and we were able to raise and give the Salvation Army hurricane relief fund $3,500.

Also, BenBella Books brought two boxes of books and galley prints, and three fans brought boxes and bags of books, DVDs, CDs and stuffed animals to get to Gulf Coast fans and their families. The system's rockin'!

Attaboys to everyone who was so tremendously generous this weekend! And welcome to everyone who has written during the past week and volunteered work and items for the cause. You're angels to me, and even better to the folks in need.

Proper job!
