My hope is to go to a FantasyCon in the next year or two _without_ having to table at said FantasyCon to be able to afford to be there 😅

I am not sure I will make it to fantasycon as I have a family thing (health thing that requires presence)
Cross fingers for me?

TL;DR I am going to be at both Octocon (virtually) and Fantasycon (in-person!) and am panelling at both - panels on disability, anti-heroes, and representation at Octocon, panels on religion in SFFH and on the Gothic at Fantasycon (which all together make a great summary of a me, actually XDD)
