cathschaffstumpIt’s time to take a little time to talk more specifically about the convention I’ve been at for 4 days. Right now the dessert salon is happening. Dan and Lisa and I usually sit this one out and sort of catch our breaths before the Guest of Honor Speeches. Highlights, though, are appropriate.
We three arrived in Madison about 11 am on Friday, deciding that the theme of this year’s convention would be cracking open a tall cold can of justice. Well, it sound good as we were driving through the limestone canyons of Dubuque. Dan and Lisa are old friends of mine. She’s a feminist studies technology arcade librarian from the University of Iowa. He’s a man feminist computing geek at the student union. Together…they fight crime! Wait…
*takes a deep breath*
Lisa and I used to make this trip alone, and Dan horned in on the action last year. It’s a three musketeers kind of gig. This year, fellow writers Julie Rose, Jenn Racek and Yolanda Joosten, plus topnotch artist Catrina Horsfield came to meet up as well. With the exception of me missing Bryon, this is as good as it gets.
