There's a whole month of SF conventions & conferences, including WorldCon, during August, so it's a good time to come over! http://fjm.livejournal.com/1283999.html

I have an idea for something, but I'm feeling a touch nervous...

Don't be nervous! It would be great if you came!

I took your 'circulate widely' literally, btw, and created a fanlore entry -- hope this is ok? (There are a few existing articles on conferences in areas of fannish interest.)

Brilliant idea: thanks.
