Thanks so much! Since the focus of these lightning-round donut episodes is always on a con's heart and soul rather than any single person, I've yet to repeat a venue. But you shouldn't have long to wait until another, because I'm hoping to record one during next year's @eastercon2027.org.

I have yet to attend #WorldCon (there’s always Montreal!) but I love @scottedelman.bsky.social donut episodes (too few and far between).
Give a listen to this episode of the Hugo Award nominated Eating The Fantastic and meet some great people.
Get well soon, Scott!

Welp, @eastercon2027.org is happening in Glasgow . . . do I want to apply as a vendor?!?
I had a Lot of fun when they held WorldCon, & now getting there won’t be a nightmare, as I can drive myself, rather than taking public transport

I'd be down but you should also suggest it to @dlibris.bsky.social for programme at @eastercon2027.org!

This is one reason I attended @easterconuk.bsky.social last year and will attend @eastercon2027.org next year. Donald Trump has done everything in his power to make my country unsafe for international travelers, so if I want to see my overseas friends again, I need to be the one to cross the pond.
Having an in person international or national event in America? Are you weighing factors like lodging and transport? Cool stuff to do? Here's a map to consider if any of your attendees may possibly, even remotely be LGBTQIA. And you care about them.

Today I booked my flights to @laworldcon.bsky.social — likely the last U.S. Worldcon for many years — plus bought a membership to @eastercon2027.org — so I can visit with those friends who wisely no longer find my country a welcome destination for international travelers. Because community matters.

So, I made a recipe from my Redwall cookbook so @drfionamoore.bsky.social didn’t have to alisonrbaker.wordpress.com/2026/04/25/t...

Yeah I think I’m going to enter this as a suggested panel to the @eastercon2027.org programme suggestion portal. Perhaps @julietemckenna.bsky.social and @kjcharleswriter.com might be interested!

Ten people came up and asked me questions about publishing during Eastercon, which was great. Several also asked me to think about putting myself forward as a programme participant for @eastercon2027.org in Glasgow, having purposely not done that this year. We'll see!

Really great chance to meet @eastercon2027.org at the feedback session at #Eastercon today - sounds like an excellent next con if the leadership’s consideration is anything to go by.

Is this an unpopular opinion? I attend a lot of programme at the cons I go to, and generally agree that single talks are often better than panels. I'd love a few TED-style sessions. Probably too late for @satellitecons.bsky.social, but how about it @eastercon2027.org?
Maybe unpopular opinion but SFF conventions should have way fewer panels and way more "somebody talks about something random and interesting for fifteen minutes"
You think I'm kidding but if a convention books me to do it I'll TED Talk the shit out of Jason's speculative timeline.
