DISCWORLD CONVENTION WOOOOOOO
No I will not calm down.
This weekend, between the two of us, Amy and I got eight books and other objects signed by Terry Pratchett, met him, shook his very hand, got photos with him, photos with Stephen Briggs, saw a Discworld version of Rocky Horror featuring a cross-dressing Vetinari, and acquired more free foreign-language Discworld books than I care to remember.
So no. I shan’t calm down about it.
It was an excellent weekend, really… indescribably excellent. What a fun group of people Discworld fans are! How nice and how strange. It’s fun to be among them, to be one of them. There were some very creative costumes around. I might put some photos up on my DeviantArt page at some point.
Character creation tomorrow at the House of Tom! I am looking forward to my first bit of (sort of) D&D action, and from what I’ve seen and heard, Tom is an excellent GM. I certainly know he’s a brilliant player. Speaking of, I’m trying to cobble together a Vampire campaign to which I shall invite Tom, Izzy, Chris, Phill and Ed… They are some cracking players right there.
Oh, speaking of things I’m meant to be cobbling together, better get on with this ‘thesis’ people keep expecting me to write/have written.
