I went to Yaoi Con 2008
Sep. 30th, 2008 11:19 amI wasn't intending to go this year…I haven't gone ever! Lol…I've always wanted to…and I think in 2006 I sent in a check and my ID to get a weekend pass…but nothing came of it.
It's held rather close so I thought it would be "Easy" To get there …but I never went UNTIL this year!
Why?
I am a member of the Lynn Flewelling mailing list. I love her books. Both the Nightrunner Series and the Bone Dolls Twin…which chroniclizes the story of Tamir Queen of Skala and her struggle 1) to hide her true sex and 2) to take the throne and 3) To fight a war against the Plenimarians
ANYWAYS!
I just happened to log in and see that she would be at Yaoi con this year…I read that on Thursday….
Well HELL YEAH! I am SO going!
Of course I'd have to drag Nancy along with me…even thought it's a complete visual experience.. *cough cough
And yes Nancy, we are obsessed with sex. ^^
I just had a feeling that this would be the only time I'd ever get to see/meet Ms. Flewelling and have her sign my book. Unfortunately I had packed up ALL my books and sent them home a few weeks ago. So that meant I had to go to the bookstore and pick up a copy (hopefully if they had it on the shelves) "Stalking Darkness"! Which answers a lot of questions poised in the first book, and where the characters share their first kiss! SQUEEEEEE
Yeah…
I had to have signed.
On the way home I also bought a little river otter because she likes otters.
And then we ran off to Yaoi con.
Okay, I've been to Fanime for 4 years? 5? And I love it! This was much smaller and very niche. I mean it is a BL con and a lot of the guys were in drag…and looking DAMN fine! It's not fair that they look so freakin' good!
Back on Topic!
We were late so we missed her panel: Male Love in Western books and film…we got to sit in on oh…20 mins of the talk…but it was great to be there.
At 3-4 she had her meet and greet. I dunno how many ppl cramed themselves into that little room just to hear her talk, ask questions, and just squee.
And after that I stood in line for about an hr, gave her the otter, and she signed my book and then nancy and I went home.
I've been squeeing ever since!
Ms. Flewelling even mentioned the otter on her blog!
SQUEEE!
Sssoooooo happy!
Will I go back next year? Will Ms. Flewelling be there? ^.^
