I have my bags packed and ready to go; I’ll be home late tonight.
China didn’t win either of the awards he was up for, alas, but it was wonderful to see John Picacio win best artist. I got to chat with him a little bit at this con, and he’s a great guy and enormously talented and deserving.
I’ve met way too many people to enumerate, and I’ve gotten to know others better. It’s been a really fantastic convention, and now I need to go home and sleep. :-)

I'm a freelance copyeditor specializing in fantasy and science fiction. SF/F novels I have copyedited have been finalists for (and have sometimes won) the Hugo, Nebula, Arthur C. Clarke, Endeavour, Golden Spur, John W. Campbell Memorial, Quill, Locus, Philip K. Dick, British Science Fiction, British Fantasy, and World Fantasy awards. In 2007 I became the first and only copyeditor ever short-listed for a World Fantasy Award.

It was good to meet you and I’d agree with everything you say above.
Now, it is off to the office for me.
I’m glad I finally got to meet you and thank you again for your help and insights into con-going! I’m just sorry I didn’t have more time to chat with you.
Good to see you, D! I only wish I could have seen you dolled up for the awards banquet!!!
I really can’t thank you enough for all you didn for me, and only wish I could have spent more time with you. You are amazing.
Deanna, sorry you ended up with my dinner, but thanks for trading with Steven.
It was great to see you again — two years is too long to wait until the next time.
You really classed up Roberson’s Bar Crowd, that’s for sure. Thanks for being my Teddy Wedger Buddy this weekend.
Glad it was great! Sorry China didn’t win. Hope to see you sometime. *hugs*
Great meeting you, Deanna.
Great meeting you, too, Jess! Keep in touch!
Hey, that was my favorite meal of the con. Thanks for taking me. :-)
Are you going to make it to the card games anymore?
I know! I miss you! It was nice seeing you, though, as always.
All I didn for you? Hm… :-D
It was great seeing you, Steve. Thanks for letting me cuddle up. ;-)
Sorry I didn’t get to chat much, Sarah. Another con, though. :-)
It was nice meeting you, too. Sorry I was so busy! I feel like I hardly got to say hi to so many people!
It was very nice meeting you, too, Steve. I’m glad we got to sit together for the banquet so we could talk a bit.
Friended. :-)
I can’t make it to the nights at the mall. I don’t get off work until 8:00ish, in Melbourne. Just doesn’t work. Maybe something else. If nothing else, you’ll be invited to my Christmas party! :}
