VCon44 is this Saturday, and I’m hoping after that I’ll have the mental capacity to breathe a bit more. I’ve been asked to be part of a couple of panels, and I’ll be reading a selection from Get Lost. Hopefully I will have more than one person show up for it this time.

Had a wonderful time tabling at VCon 44, Vancouver's oldest speculative fiction convention! The day was packed with great conversations and I always enjoy seeing what other vendors are creating. 😀 #WCSFA #VCon44 #indieauthor
A photo of me, a fem person with short brown hair, brown eyes and green rimmed glasses wearing a maroon sweater with an asymmetric buttoned collar and white houndstooth pants. I'm holding a copy of Absence of Blade, my first space opera novel, and standing behind my vendor table which is draped with a dark blue tablecloth. A silver crate holds copies of all three books I was selling that day. Atop it are draped some imitation ferns and a Triceratops plushie. The table also holds bookmarks, a document holder showing my price sheet, a sign up sheet for my mailing list, and my Square reader.

I’ll be there in my KN95 ❤️

Right now I’m in a mad dash to get both Get Lost and FuzzyCon Nights ready to print in time for VCon44 next month. Find out why those last few days before finalizing a book are the most stressful!

The background is a painting of a dim room with one bright, overhead light shining down on a headless android sitting at a table and holding a head in each hand, as if trying to choose one. A third head sits on the table in front of the machine, and all three heads are constructed in different styles. Near the top, in a large display font, are the words "Pick Your Punk" in white and green. Above and below the word "Pick", in green and a smaller sans-serif font, are the texts "WCSFA presents" and "VCON 44". Below the word "Punk", in white, is the text "Living Through the 21st Century" with "November 14 2026", "BCIT Burnaby Campus" and "Bldg SE02 & SE06" on three lines in green below that. Towards the bottom are two lines that say "Guests of Honour: Author Holly Schofield, Artist Eric Chu" and "Special Appearance by: Author William Gibson" in white and green. In the middle on the right is a QR code with the text "Game Runner Interest Form" above and the URL "https://s.wcsfa.org/v44-game-interest" below it in white.

Wide horizontal banner for VCON 44: Pick Your Punk. The background is a warm, shadowy illustration of a cluttered workshop filled with partially assembled robots, mechanical parts, shelves, tools, and soft golden light. Large white and green block lettering reads “Pick Your Punk,” with “WCSFA presents” and “VCON 44” on the left. On the right, smaller text reads “Living through the 21st Century,” “November 14 2026,” “BCIT Burnaby Campus,” and “Bldg SE02 & SE06.”
