I might have to surrender my gamer-girl card…
Published by Deanna Hoak September 13th, 2007 in blogBecause I gave up buying a PS3 to get this dress for the World Fantasy Awards instead. :-)
It was just too pretty to pass up, though!

About
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, Golden Spur, John W. Campbell Memorial, Quill, Locus, Philip K. Dick, British Science Fiction, British Fantasy, and World Fantasy awards. In 2007 I was short-listed for a World Fantasy Award for my copyediting.

GOOD LUCK! You look stunning in the dress.
My con is running opposite to WFC this year or I’d be there :(
That is absolutely gorgeous! Have a wonderful time. I’ll bet you’ll feel like a million dollars that night!
I would have gone with the dress too.
As for the PS3, bleh, Xbox 360 all the way! :)
Stunning!
Good trade-off!
HellOOOOOOOOOOOOO nurse!
Very nice!
Yes, Xbox 360 or no way…
See you at WFC! :P
Yowza. That is certainly a head-turner.
Wow.
Rats! Out-glammed again!
You’ve certainly thrown the gauntlet down there. I’ll be interested to see what the competition is like, but I suspect there might be a few other girls besides me looking at our hands and muttering “fold”.
HELLO!
It’s alright, I’m sure you can have your card back later. Its for WFC, which is way cooler than a PS3.
Besides, you look great in it.
Hawt, my dear. =)
You know what, you totally made the right choice. :)
That is a stunning dress. And on you, it once again proves why people keep referring to you as one of the hottest women in the genre.
Smokin’!
The game system (or an even newer version) will always be available for purchase. A gorgeous dress is hard to find.
Hubba hubba. Glad I’m not a nominee: I can just look like a shlump, ’cause no one will be looking at me anyway.
What they said. I’m tempted to slip your photo in among the Best Dressed Stars at the Emmys spread here at [popular national weekly] and see if anyone notices the others.
That is a gorgeous dress and looks perfect for the WFA, great choice. I love it and it looks amazing on you!
Very very nice.
Wow!
Knock ‘em dead girl!
Easily the best reason to attend WFC this year that I’ve see.
I think I would have forgone the PS3 too if I looked that good in that dress.
Damn woman! Hawt. (gamer girl to gamer girl, platonic & all)
Wowzah! :D
Well, it’s undeniable that the dress looks great, and you look great in it. But I think for a fair comparison, we need to see what you look like wearing the PS3!
