Great time at #WorldCon2026 #LAconV. Saw the blood moon first night. Moderated and sat on panels, met new friends and old.

Fuzzy says they miss all their friends and to stay tuned for a few more recaps from #LAconV before we sign off!

going through photos and am delighted by the contrast between these two, both with @kateelliottsff.bsky.social, taken twelve years apart at LonCon3 and LAConV respectively XD

My spouse, this morning, apropos of nothing:

"I think we need to go to that big SciFi convention each year. It was a lot of fun."

I *knew* getting her a badge for #LAConV #WorldCon was a good idea.

The tiny koala I received in Berlin traveled the 3,000 km drive to Anaheim (and back--6,000 km total; nothing compared to the transatlantic flight!) clinging to his friend, Fuzzy, accompanied by a tribble. I look forward to returning him to his home in 2028!

A heads up to anyone I hung out with at #LAconV/#WorldCon: I've tested positive (with a low viral load, if this test is to be believed) for Covid. I'll confirm for sure tomorrow. This has been closer to me dealing with my ridiculous allergies with a minor cold, though ymmv.

Take care of yourselves!

Still feel like I'm coming down from the high of #Worldcon, and I have an inkling that I'll be feeling that way for a while.

What an incredibly great time it was. From the panels I attended, through the panels I was on, to the books I bought and the books I sold and the people I talked with.

Can’t believe the Empire would approve of my Speculative Fiction Politics panel at @laworldcon.bsky.social, but they seemed friendly...

🧵 Still catching up after an amazing @laworldcon.bsky.social weekend. Did a little writeup about winning the #HugoAward for Best Professional Artist. Hugos are hard. They don’t come easily. Very grateful. Gonna post some highlights from the con. #laconV #worldcon 1/

My first Worldcon was one of the greatest experiences of my life. I still can't believe it was a real thing that happened. Thank you to all of the amazing people I met at LAconV and everyone involved with running the event!

For those who were at #worldcon #LAconV (particularly in person), a note/reminder that the con set up a Discord channel for disease-self-reporting to help track and share info.

I spent the weekend at #LAConV talking about what unifies my list. My deals are spread across four genres, but they all have one main principle: stories of self discovery/determination/assertion. Strong focus on community, organizing and belonging as foils against oppression and authoritarianism.
