Another Quick Fly-By Post

Hey all! [livejournal.com profile] emmalyon and I are going to head out in about a half hour to go to our first panel, which is all about Doctor Who. Should be fun. :)

Not too much to report, as I just sort of floated around yesterday (and walked out of two panels that were boring me to tears--and I always feel annoyed when that happens, especially more than once in one day), and I probably was getting a little aggravated by the SF Fan version of Comic Book Guy in such large quantities, but other than that...

After the closing ceremonies, we're going to check out one of the bookstores in the area, perhaps go out to lunch, and whatnot. We fly out tomorrow morning. I have to say it was a very quick trip TO Denver, so I suppose it won't be a problem once we head back. I'll have a more detailed, long-winded post when we get back and are settled in. Plus, I took tomorrow off as well, so I can get random errands done (like laundry and whatnot).

More later! :)

That's all, folks

Okay, and Worldcon is officially over for this year. I have comments I'd like to make concerning said Worldcon (some good, some not so good, but it all evens out), but I'm too tired and full of delicious food from Paramount Cafe in downtown Denver (quite possibly the BEST restaurant in the neighborhood). Once we're back home at a normal altitude and there are actual hills nearby instead of in the distance (heh), I'll get more elaborative.

I will say that I was happy to have come up with some nifty ideas for the Love Like Blood universe while here, pretty much all of it bursting forth when I was listening to an agent who was talking about Urban Fantasy and how much she loves reading it (let's just say that my brain immediately went "Okay...how would I sell LLB to her in as few words as possible...?" and erroneously--or not--described Gabriel as a "sleeper vampire"...it just went from there).

Not only that, I thought of a YA version of the LLB universe in which a kid vampire moves to a new town and is worried not about fitting in with the popular crowd as he is that the adults will peg him as part of the Trenchcoat Mafia. More on this later--this one promises to be a LOT of fun to write. ;)

So on that note, I'm going to goof off on the internets a little while longer then call it a night. See you on the flipside! :)
