Capricon will be virtual this year. Or rather, next year. Right. Time still exists.

I'm very excited to be the Guest of Honor Liaison for Capricon, coming up February 4-7, 2021. I've been a guest of honor liaison many times, but Cap has landed a most excellent line-up of GoHs for its all-virtual convention: the inestimable artist John Jennings, the fabulous author and spoken word artist Brandon O’Brien, another great author in Aliette de Bodard, the most amazing Michi Trota, who is an award-winning editor, author, speaker, fire-spinner, and nerd organizer there in Chicago, also known as @ GeekMelange, and then finally the nerdy indie musician Dr. Cacophonie Tamayo.

Also, apropos of a long-ago kitchen-table conversation: you may already know this, but literary fiction is not only supposed to be boring, it's specifically to be stultefying and stifle social justice:
