WorldCon Vignette

[przed]

just_ann_now will appreciate this.

My most exciting WorldCon thing today was hearing Ellen Kushner read a brand new Riverside story with Alec and Richard. (More specifically, the story of how Alec became the Duke Tremontaine.) It was funny and lovely and I can't wait for it to be published. Which will be next year, but it will be worth the wait.

Afterward, I fangirled Ms. Kushner--no one else was talking to her! I couldn't help myself--and hopefully managed to maintain a sane and respectful aspect. But I couldn't get that close and not tell her how much her novels have meant to me.

It's going to be in an Ellen Datlow anthology next year. (Didn't catch the name. Was too busy enjoying the moment.)

Lucky heartofoshun. I signed up for the KaffeKlatsch with her and Delia Sherman, but I'm the second alternate and I'm steeling myself to be disappointed, even as I'm preparing intelligent questions to ask if someone doesn't make it.
