here’s what’s in stock:
Guest of Honor – Charles Stross
Official Artist Gregory Manchess
Special Guest – Charlaine Harris
Featured Filker – Erica Neely
Hal Clement Science Speaker – Joan Slonczewski
We love Boskone; we’ve attended and sold there for a number of years, and it’s such a refreshing convention. It’s not too serious, not too silly, and has an excellent blend of focuses: art, fiction, filk and gaming. What’s filk? I’ll let the experts explain. Check out the FILKONterio site for more info. We highly recommend attending, and have a visit to the Huckster’s Room if you go – we hope to be selling there again!!
